Ubuntu Startup Message: Usage of /: 90%












0















i'm completly new & this is my first question here ever.



i'm interested in learning more about linux based operation systems. i've installed ubuntu server 18.04.1 lts edition with an iso file using oracle virtual box.



yesterday i faced an issue, that mysql server could not be started anymore. luckily apt- clean /autoremove solved the issue - after checking the error logs i found out issue was available space.



i would like to know, how i can increase the 3.87 GB of the daily message i've attached on the bottom in a secure way without destroying anything. wish would be to set it to 20gb and 10gb for the disk, as i'm only using the installation to learn command line based administration.



current situation after installation via iso file.
i've created a 30gb partition on my system and it's currently splitted in 1gb (grub - dont remember exactly), 4gb root partition and 25gb vdi disk.



i've read about gparted & tried to use the tool. i've loaded it with the live cd iso file they provide on their homepage & crashed the installation (wasn't able to reboot as i got error messages kernel could not be informed) & restored the ubuntu vm from a backup disk.



i will kindly provide further information if someone can guide me with the right command line instructions.



i've managed to install mysql and other tools successfully & usually i'm able to help myself consulting websites, tutorials and books. but i'm completly stuck on how to continue with this topic.



any help is much appreciated.



here is some information i've think might be usefull:



System load:  0.0               Processes:             104
Usage of /: 91.7% of 3.87GB Users logged in: 1
Memory usage: 37% IP address for enp0s3: <removed by me>
Swap usage: 0%

=> / is using 91.7% of 3.87GB

  • "it's currently splitted in 1gb (grub - dont remember exactly), 4gb root partition and 25gb vdi disk" - that's confusing to me. Are you using a physical partition as root partition? Please explain exactly how the disk space (virtual and/or physical) of your virtual machine is configured.
