Hi,
i'm running Openelec 6.0.3 on a Pi3 with a 8GB SD card. Partition is expanded, so df shows size of 6.8G for /storage.
According to df this 6.8G are fully used - but a du on /stugare only shows total file size of approx. 140M - so, where did al the space go?
I found one old post on the same topic: 207575 (thread)

Below outputs of du and df.

As recommended in old post I inserted the SD card of the Pi into a PC running gpartd live CD. Below is the fsck info of the SD card:

The filesystem is already 7412736 (1k) blocks long. Nothing to do!

========================================

So, I've still no clue where over 6.5GB went to. Any idea?

You might have a large file in the root of the /storage partition, which won't show up with your "du" command.

Try running:

Code:
du -xcd2 -acm | sort -k1n

nickr · 2016-11-26, 03:06

If you are trying to track down where big files are,try

du --maxdepth=1|sort - nr

Thanks both, yet i'm still confused.

First remark: compared to yesterday I deleted the entire Thumbnails subfolder to temporarily free up some space, so the sizes of today output are not comparable to yesterdays results.

Here is the output of the sugested commands (the 2nd had to be modified, since was not running on openelec plus additional x to exclude mounted subfolder.

Code:

Still telling 6.7G used whereas the du shows only 31MB.

nickr · 2016-11-27, 03:48

What is in /storage itself?

Code:
ls -l /storage

flamati · 2016-11-28, 20:13

Dear all,

the content was already visible in above du commands. The first du in my last post showed 4 files there (.ash_hist*). The total used size of /sturage was 31M at that moment whereas df still showed 6.7G used.

I stopped investigating the problem and formated the SD card and installed a fresh LibreElec 7.0.2 from the scratch. Now all is fine, df and du match...
