Re: which files took the space

It can happen with /boot or /home. Mistakenly copying files to an unmounted
drive copies the files to the underlying file system, in the directory that
usually serves as the mount point for the external file system. Once /boot or
/home is mounted, you don't see the files but they are still taking space on
the disk.


I have recently seen such thing happening, due to faulty script expecting a usb mounted disk that was not always there. A rsync in such situation can fill a disk
