About 1GB of the 4GB OS partition is being used by the LMS app alone.
# du -csh /var/lib/squeezeboxserver 691M /var/lib/squeezeboxserver 691M total # du -csh /usr/share/squeezeboxserver 307M /usr/share/squeezeboxserver 307M total
When apps store a lot of data on the OS partition that does contribute to getting error messages like this. There are a few other things as well that have contributed to the high root volume usage.
The usage going up then down then back up again would relate to log truncation/pruning presumably.
Most things that are not stored on the data volume would be stored on the root volume.
