I am hoping someone here will know this.
I'm wondering if there is a way to install a clean install of Debian x86,
same bullseye version that is on the machine, to an external drive, so I can
boot to it?
I installed this one from DVD images on a thumb drive, but I'd rather
install something that
dpkg.log has all of the packages installed and date stamps for when those
got installed. kern.log is a log of kernel activity.
The kern.log may have warnings and errors and fatals in it that may be
helpful to know.
That can be searched with grep -i fatal kern.log grep -i error kern.log
and grep -i
The first one listed is
dpkg.log
The next one is
kern.log

No, I would not delete all of those logs. Some of them may have valuable
information in them you'll need later.
Do man logrotate and read up on the -f option.
Before and after using logrotate run:
df -h /
This way you get information on what logrotate -f saved you in disk space.
It's good to get l
Next, try this:
ls -1S /var/log/*.log.
The first log name you read will be the largest log in that directory and
the logs get progressively smaller.

Yeah, that tells me 170 M.
So I deleting everything would help.
Is it safe to do that?

Try du --human *.log in /var/log/
Try du --human *.log in /var/log/ and you'll get a report on space used.

Well there's a lot of log files there, is it okay to just delete them all?
I don't know to see how much space they are taking up.

Another consideration is partition architecture. Some systems separate
/home and other partitions when installed and this can get into trouble
rather fast. Putting everything into a single / partition likely will get
users into trouble later and when that happens that's more difficult. Do

Are logs being rotated timely and correctly? If not, you likely have lots
of ancient logs in /var/log/. How to check and set up good log rotation I
don't know though.

Thanks Samuel and Jeffrey,
I deleted everything in /tmp with
sudo rm -R *.*
and it removed everything except a file or folder called pulse-something
The something was letters and numbers.
I got rid of that with
rm -R puls*
So I rebooted, and I still get the same error.
I'm wondering about how to mi
Yeah, doing a sudo rm -Rf /tmp/* should be safe.
My system drive is 320 GB, but before I got in the routine of
regularly clearing out /tmp/ I'd get such errors constantly once /tmp/
accumulated 2GB of temp files.
Worst I've noticed is that Firefox and/or Orca are a little more prone
to crashing a

Actually /tmp is supposed to be completely cleared at reboot, so you can
safely drop whatever is there.

Hi All,
I've been looking on-line for some solutions, to the problem of my Asus 701
with only 4GB internal space, which is giving me the error of:
no space left on device
I think I filled it up with the program:
gqrx-sdr
Then I found out that GQRX-sdr is apparently a GUI program only.
So I did
