Package: netdata
Version: 1.8.0+dfsg-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I've been trying to setup netdata monitoring on several debian servers.
Unfortunately I found out that debian packaged netdata behaves differently
than manually installed netdata from
https://github.com/firehol/netdata/wiki/Installation.
I've created a virtual machine and installed latest netdata with default config.
Here are partition details of the virtual machine:

Manually installed netdata (from binaries) displays following partitions under
Disks menu:
sda - i/o stats
/ - disk space and inodes count
/dev - disk space and inodes count
/dev/shm - disk space and inodes count
/run - disk space and inodes count
/run/lock - disk space and inodes count
Debian packaged netdata displays completely different partition configuration:
sda - i/o stats
/tmp - disk space and inodes count
/var - disk space and inodes count
/var/tmp - disk space and inodes count
Debian packaged netdata unfortunately fails to detect correctly disks on my
servers therefore monitoring them is not very reliable and I haven't found a way
to fix the partitions manually in netdata config.
