so /usr and /home?

Ya. Is there another user on your machine?

Stupid question, nm. Do the same under /usr.

I usually give / like 50GB for a workstation install. If I can’t, I create a few separate volumes like /var/log and /var. That way if one fills up it won’t affect everything else.

I don’t think you’re going to be able to take much out of /usr.

but I can reduce /home easily. nothing much is really there as I changed my user folders to links to my nextcloud folder that resides on the 4TB SATA drive.

I did not intentionally make this a small partition that I recall.

Ah ok ya that would work.

Not sure how to resolve it though. /home is part of a LVM volume.

While root is just an ext4 partition.

[momurda]

I thought anything under /dev/mapper/ is using LVM?

@momurda said in Fedora 27 Filesystem root full:

Ya looks like / is using LVM. You would have to shrink your /home a bit and then grow your / volume.

[stacksofplates]

How did you install this? Every time I’ve installed it / gets 50GB and /home takes the rest.

[Obsolesce]

Oh this is a desktop. If this was a server I'd ask what it's doing and check for lots of or large log files.

It's probably full of just regular software packages.

Shrink /home by 50G and give it to root. On a workstation it doesn't make sense to give root 10G. I don't know why tha'ts default. I thought the default was 15 GiB? But still, it's a workstation, installing software will go to root and fill that shit up fast.

It's LVM right? If so it's easy to fix.

Here's mine:

According to above, had mine only been 10G i'd be out of room too.

@stacksofplates said in Fedora 27 Filesystem root full:

I could have sworn it's 15 GiB by default on Fedora Workstation... which is still too low on a desktop.

[Obsolesce]

You can do it in Cockpit so easily:

/home: shrink it

Then add it to your / partition

I do not recall changing this. I would assume that I click custom and then let it create it in the advanced screen.

I agree with you and @Tim_G that this seems odd form my normal experiences.

[JaredBusch]

I cannot unmount /home because it is busy. even after a reboot and not logging in.

You will have to use a live bootable OS to unmount /home.

Why can't you do it live in Cockpit?

I never had to unmount.

[JaredBusch]

For the record, my laptop is setup this way.

[scottalanmiller]

@jaredbusch that likely means that you have a shell session that is currently "cd'd" into the /home somewhere and/or some process that is running out of it.
