Xbian (beta 2) SD Card Full issue - rizzyc - 27th Nov, 2013 12:19 PM

My Xbian (new beta 2 version) was constantly freezing on my 4 gig sd card. I decided to install the image on an 8 gig SD card.

However I had my this entire setup (http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=47084) with flexget and trakt.tv set up so I didn't want to repeat the whole process so I copied the image of the 4gig installer using Win32 disk imager and transferred it to the 8 gig card.

The pi stopped freezing and has been running for a few days but transmission isn't running because of a space issue.
In Transmission I get this issue
Error: Unable to save resume file: No space left on device


I ran df -h and got this:
Terminal

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs 3.5G 3.4G 0 100% /
/dev/mmcblk0p2 3.5G 3.4G 0 100% /

none 25M 452K 25M 2% /run

/dev/mmcblk0p2 3.5G 3.4G 0 100% /xbmc-backup
/dev/sda1 1.4T 94G 1.2T 8% /media/media

My transmission stopped working because of space issues now, although I still have 1.2 T of space left on the HD.

I also get this error when logging in through SSL:
Terminal
xbian@xbian ~ $ sudo su
[sudo] password for xbian:
sudo: unable to write to /var/lib/sudo/xbian/2: No space left on device
If anyone can help figure out what is happening, that would be greatly appreciated.

run xbian-config & expand the sd card. Config > Settings > System #7 Resize SD - "Expand root parition to fill SD card"

I tried this but it said that this function is disabled. It is supposed to resize automatically on boot but that doesn't seem to happen for me.

I would have a look to see what is using up all the space - 3.7G seems rather a lot. Xbian is only 1G - so 3G is being used somewhere.

Run something like sudo du -a / | sort -n -r | head -n 10 to find the 10 largest files. Maybe some movies or temp files are clogging up the FS.

I will have to run this when I get home. Thanks

The card is still an 8 gig card, so something seems off, I have a feeling it is because I copied a 4 gig file system to an 8 gig. I think I'll have to just reformat and reinstall flexget and transmission.

RE: Xbian (beta 2) SD Card Full issue - IriDium - 28th Nov, 2013 11:20 PM

If you look at you root partition it is 3.5G 100% utilisation. So something has filled up the card to the 4G partition size.

4G is just unpartitioned i.e not used so can't be seen by the software.

I have a feeling that the resizeFS part of init requires a bit of freespace to work with, so freeing up some space should have everything running as normal.

I ended up doing a fresh new install on the 8 gig, I backed up my transmission.json and flexget scripts so it only took about 20 minutes to set it all up. Installing flexget took the longest time.

RE: Xbian (beta 2) SD Card Full issue - IriDium - 29th Nov, 2013 12:48 AM

So what is the size of your root files system now?

df -h

RE: Xbian (beta 2) SD Card Full issue - CurlyMo - 29th Nov, 2013 01:23 AM

Please notice that df and btrfs are a bad combination. Use btrfs fi df / instead.

I did a clean install and now have the same problem, must be some issue with flex get or transmission although they are all pointing to the external hard drive.

I ran this:
Looks like I don't even have enough space to run the command.

In future - any output greater than about 10 lines needs to added as a text file, a link to pastbin or the [spoiler] tags inserted.

Well you'll need to free up some space if possible. Remove addons that are no longer required or used (They can be added back at a later stage)

I found this problem, my mistake it was an error in my transmission settings.json
