where is SD card mounted?

[tezza]

Hi, I have debian installed (mirrordirector.raspbian.org wheezy)

startup says there is a problem with the disk but I have no idea where the SD card is mounted. So I dunno how to fix it.

Code: Select all

root@raspberrypi:~# lsblk
NAME        MAJ:MIN RM   SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
mmcblk0     179:0    0  15.5G  0 disk
├─mmcblk0p1 179:1    0    56M  0 part /boot
└─mmcblk0p2 179:2    0   1.8G  0 part /

Also I am apparently running out of space

Code: Select all

root@raspberrypi:~# df
Filesystem     1K-blocks    Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs           1804128 1732016         0 100% /

Did you use the "Expand filesystem" option in raspi-config that you were given when you booted for the first time? If not, try it "sudo raspi-config".

Another place that fills up quickly is the area where software updates are downloaded to by apt-get. If you've been running that command with the upgrade or dist-upgrade uption you may want to run "sudo apt-get clean" to remove old files.

The two partitions on the card are /dev/mmcblk0p1 which is mounted as /boot, and /dev/mmcblk0p2 which is mounted as /
(/ will also show as /dev/root, rootfs and possibly another entry)

+1
The card shows as 16GB the filesystem shows as < 2GB.

[RaTTuS]

it is mounted as /
which is the rootfs
+1 for above suggestions

Its underneath at the opposite end to the USB ports.....

+1 for answering the other interpretation of the question.

Thanks guys. I installed this years ago and forgot about everything (my memory is not good).

Didn't even remember raspi-conf. Anyway, I ran it and selected the expand rootfs option and rebooted. After barfing on fsck failure, (to which I just Ctrl-D to continue booting), it has come up with "Performing online resize blah". It's taking a while (over 20mins) and I hope that the failed fsck thing doesn't indicate a fatal error for the resize thing. Oh well.

Yes, I had just fired the thing up again and first thing I ran was apt-get udate (which succeeded) and then I attempted apt-get dist-upgrade (without checking df). Thanks for the tip. It it does come back, I will run the "apt-get clean" command first thing.

I have a 16GB USB thumb drive which I will mount somewhere to alleviate the space issue.

I plan on using it as a webcam server and filtering proxy. back in the day, I used to use Internet Junk Buster. Does anyone know of a modern equivalent that is easy to set up?

squid3 with an ad-blocking blacklist or privoxy do the same thing as Internet Junkbuster.
