Hi. First at all, sorry by my English...
I'm an Ubuntu user since 2008, always in dual-boot with Windows. For the last years, I used Linux Mint but now, with a new notebook and the brand new Ubuntu 20.04, I've decided to go back to Ubuntu Gnome.
My notebook has one 128 GB SSD and 1 TB HD. The SSD comes partitioned by factory leaving just 100 GB for Windows. I've reduced this partition to 75 GB (Windows occupied around 60 GB) and I've occupied these 25 GB to install the Ubuntu's root (I've installed the /home at 1 TB HD).
After installed and configured, the root occupied 15 GB, leaving 10 GB free. It was a surprise to me when, the next day, there was a message informing that root had no free space (there were only 1.5 GB free). I ran Bleachbit and it freed 5 GB but after some hours this message appeared again.
So, I went to Windows and I took another 5 GB and I reinstalled Ubuntu, then with 30 GB for root. 2 days after, this morning the message was shown again. And the Bleachbit freed only 1.8 GB.
Running Disk Analyzer, the result was: 26.5 GB root total. The 2 biggest areas were var (16 GB) and usr (8 GB).
Inside var, 12.7 were occupied by log. When I opened log, I saw that journal occupied 1.3 GB and the rest occupied little space. So, I don't know where were these 12.7 (there were some items without information of disk space: gdm3, private, speech-dispatcher).
The usr 8.0 GB total, 5.5 were at lib and 1.8 at share.
Someone can help me with any suggestion how to proceed?
Thanks in advance.
