You can also install "Storage Usage" to easily see what is taking the most space on your system.

pingu, I think nobody answered you last time because your question isn't clear. The LXDE desktop folder is in your /home/user folder. Why do you want to change it?
My /home/user directory was deleted and so the LXDE desktop folder, so I need to remount it.

Reboot and see if the space has been unallocated. You can delete the file but whilst something (eg the loop mount code) has the inode open, the inode stay allocated.
I again restarted my device but no changes. mount doesn't tell anything about it or its me who couldn't figure out as I'm not sure what exactly it would be like coz whatever it prints seems they belong there. df -h tells that I have 12.8G used and 14.2G free in MyDocs, however, DiskUsage tells me that 10.2G is used and same 14.2G free in MyDocs out of 27.0GB.

mount mounting /dev/loop0 on /debian failed: invalid argument

old version worked fine.
Fixed, i guess with this:

cd /mnt/initfs/lib/modules/2.6.21-omap1
insmod mbcache.ko
insmod ext2.ko

The ".lzma" indicates that the image hasn't been unpacked yet!

jaeezzy:

as root, try

Code:
fsck.vfat -fy /dev/mmcblk0p1
That should get your space back.

Thanks qole I think I'm very close to getting it back as now diskusage also says that I have 12.5G used and fsck.vfat -fy has created 45 files from FSCK001 - 45 with total of almost 3G in MyDocs, can I safely delete them?

jaeezzy: I think it is safe to delete those files. The generic names mean that they are blocks of unknown data. I think we can safely assume that they're actually the remnants of the "deleted" image file (and other deleted files).

Hi there everybody.

I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I installed the easy-debain
app and ran the image installed. The xtrem opened and downloaded the 300MB
file. Then extracted it, 1/2 way though it failed with a error I missed.
Then I noticed my /home is 100% full. I can not find the original file,
something .ext.deb or something that is suppose to extract to the 2gb space
needed. I did an "du" on the /home and saw that the "." is 302MB, but I can
not fine anything to delete there?.

I uninstalled 1 or 2 appes, but it did not clear much space.

Can someone please, please assist? Where is that dam big file?
Thanks very much!
