  • Making space on a Tonidoplug

    2010 - 03.21

    Log on to your Tonido using ssh (I use Gnome-RDP). This will allow you access to the root terminal for your plug.

    Once online I recommend you validate your disk space useage with the following command line:

    df -h /

    You will see something like:

    Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
    rootfs                462M  462M   0M  100%  /

    First I remove my user files to another PC via FileZilla.  You can find the Tonido user files at: /root  Simply download the entire /root/app directory tree and files.  Once downloaded, delete them on the Tonido.  This will provide adequate space to run the following:

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
    sudo apt-get clean
    sudo apt-get install localepurge
    sudo localepurge

    After running these commands I had the following space available:

    You will see something like:

    Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
    rootfs                462M  439M   20M  96% /

    Now all you need to do is reload your user files from whence they came.
