Hi all ! Since a few days my root partition is continuously filling up to 100%.
I found no file that could account for such a disk usage and when I reboot the computer disk space come back to normal (~60% used) and fill up again in a few time. I ran this command : iotop -a --user root And I noticed two crazy processes : 357 be/4 root 372.00 K 4.59 G ?unavailable? [flush-8:0] 360 be/3 root 0.00 B 1625.69 M ?unavailable? [jbd2/ sda5-8] These two processes wrote several gigabytes in less than a half of an hour on the root partition. I use Ubuntu Lucid with latest kernel 2.6.32-34-generic, coming back to 2.6.32-33 didn't solve the problem. The root partition is formatted in ext4. Do somebody have an idea ?
