February 23, 20233 yr This week I installed Armbian on three BananaPi M5s. The OS ran fine from SD card, but once installed to emmc (using armbian-config) the system booted with a message that the file space available was zero. In the case of one of the boards I found an 8GB .img file in /media/my userid/. I assumed it was a copy of the 8GB SD card, and I deleted it. The system is fine now. But in the case of the other two I have yet to determine what is consumbing all the file space. There are two empty directoris in /media (mmcboot and mmcroot). Any idea what is causing this and more importantly how to fix the two existing systems? Thanks, Paul
February 23, 20233 yr Author Okay... I found the large .img file in my ~/Documents directory. For some reason 'sudo find / -size +1000M' did not find it for me.
February 23, 20233 yr What image were you installing from? Are these files part of that image, or were they created later?
February 23, 20233 yr Author The image is Armbian_22.11.3_Bananapim5_jammy_current_6.1.4_gnome_desktop.img.xz The files were created during armbian-config installing the OS from the SD card to internal emmc.
