This is a very unusual request.
Any Linux has a simple way to check the state of the drives:
In a Terminal, type:
Code:
df -hOn my machine, it looks like that:
Code:
serban ~ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
tmpfs 1,6G 3,1M 1,6G 1% /run
/dev/sda2 31G 16G 14G 53% /

serban ~ Everybody who uses a computer should know how much space is still available.
Can you check the above and then post back the result?
Best regards, Șerban
