My Ubuntu machine's root partition is above 80% full.
xxxx@dberc-repo:~$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 79G 12K 79G 1% /dev
tmpfs 16G 1.3M 16G 1% /run
/dev/mapper/dell--dev--02--vg-root 117G 88G 24G 80% /
none 4.0K 0 4.0K 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
none 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock

none 100M 0 100M 0% /run/user
/dev/sda1 236M 100M 124M 45% /boot
But I can still see that, there are some other partitions (/run/shm
or /run
), which have space to spare.
Can anyone suggest how I can allocate some of the free space to my root partition?
/lib/modules
and/boot
is to runsudo apt autoremove
