      could check if there is a file named core inside of your MagicMirror folder. Snille had an issue which created this huge file:

          try to run this on console:
          find -type f -exec du -Sh {} + | sort -rh | head -n 5

          This should bring up the 5 biggest files

            @yawns said in No free space on SD-card:

            find -type f -exec du -Sh {} + | sort -rh | head -n 5

            thanks, but it didn’t find any abnormal larg file

            43M	./MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/electron
            37M	./.electron/electron-v1.4.15-linux-arm.zip
            15M	./MagicMirror/node_modules/electron/dist/libnode.so
            14M	./MagicMirror/node_modules/clarinet/test/twitter.js
            14M	./MagicMirror/node_modules/clarinet/samples/twitter.json
            

            so, could be there a milions of small (let say 1MB) files/logs? I’ve no problem to buy bigger SD, but if there asi any problem with growing files, even 1TB SD card will be one day full…

              Are you really sure your sd card is full?
              Please run df -h to check for disk space (maybe you need to run sudo df -h, not sure)

                I guess the last 2GB is recovery or smthg like that

                  @zdenek Did you delete all the stuff not used for a mirror? From the complete setup tutorial: sudo apt-get remove --purge idle3 java-common libreoffice* minecraft-pi scratch nuscratch penguinspuzzle python-minecraftpi python3-minecraftpi smartsim sonic-pi wolfram-engine
