William, you found the problem. I didn't think to look into /storage
mount point because the partition that was full was /, and so only
looked for unwanted files in /mnt and /media. How did you know that
/storage was the culprit, and how could it affect /? 

I now have:

  $ df
  Filesystem                    1K-blocks     Used Available Use% Mounted on
  rootfs                           474440   257750    192193  58% /

  tmpfs                            830924     1572    829352   1% /run

My / usage is still huge, 258 Mb, but at least the "full" problem is gone.
I hope I can ignore the doubly mounted root partition.
