System partition filling up and not showing up properly (I think)
Hey Netgear community I hope i'm on the right forum and category for that. I've been troubleshooting some services issues on my Pro6 that seems to be related to the system partition. Samba no...
Nevermind, I found another folder that was hidding really well and was the root cause of my problems.
I learned a new linux command on my way :p
If you reboot the NAS the root volume might be visible in that list again if you freed up space on it.
But first I would suggest that you make sure that you have an up to date backup.
Hey,
Thanks for looking at my problem.
I restarted the NAS and the root partition is still not there. However :
df / -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on - 4.0G 4.0G 0 100% /
I really cleaned the two apps that could log something and its still filling up. Really scratching my head on this one. I just found that :

Isn't Samba filling up my drive right here?
