[LIVE] No Space Left on Device
#1
I just recently setup my first XBMC live bootable thumb drive on a Zbox. I had everything working with the exception of the audio. From a previous forum post, it said I should follow these instructions to fix the audio via HDMI: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW...,_or_GT240

I got to the "apt-get upgrade" step. In the middle of it, it errored out saying "No Space Left on Device". The thumb drive is 4GB, and there is still approximately 2GB left on it. I'm not really familiar with linux, so I'm not quite sure what to do. I did use the command "df -h", which shows 100% usage on the following:

rootfs mounted on /
/dev/loops mounted on /live/cow
aufs mounted on /

All three show Size of 617M and used 617M.

Any ideas on how I can solve this problem?

Yeah apt can be a pain in the butt. Much like a torrent client it wil resere all the disk space it will need for download and the space needed for copy and expand from archive and more room to install and configure.

Try:

Quote:sudo apt-get clean

also a couple things to make or save space

Quote:sudo apt-get install localepurge


select en_xx
exit

Quote:sudo localepurge

and feel free to erase doc and man

Quote:sudo rm -r /usr/doc
Quote:sudo rm -r /usr/man

That will get you some space
