      Hi all
      I’ve no de why, but I’ve no space on SD-Card. It’s 8GB and there is just Rapsian+MM+ some modules+VNC. Could be the problem any module, that it stores locally a lot of data? I’ve:
      Calendar
      Current Weather
      Complimetns
      MMM-AirQuality by CFenner
      calendar_monthly by KirAsh4
      MMM-Netatmo by CFenner
      MMM-NetworkScanner by ianperrin
      MMM-WunderGround by RedNax67

      And now, after restart Raspberry do not start at all 😞

      So, how to check the data? how to find the biggest files? How to delete them? I can put SD into Mac or Win machine…

      and what to do to not happen in future again?

      thanks, Zdenek

        @zdenek sounds more like a defective sd-card if the Pi won’t start at all.

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

              @yawns nope 😞 actually, there is about 40 MB and it starts. So, Raspberry is running. I huess 8GB should be enough. Or not? How to find biggets file and delete?

                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

                  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
