[opensuse] What fills root if not snapshots

3 Sep 2018

      Hi all,

This Asus laptop (with TW and KDE) was not used for ten days. Yesterday 
evening I switched it on and saw I have >800 updates. I tried tio 
install them with zypper dup. I failed, because root got full. This was 
with 4.18.0 kernel. I managed to boot into 4.17.14 kernel (got some 
complaints, but none showstopper) and manually remove all downloaded rpm 
packages from /var/cache/zypp/packages with mc. Dolphin did not start in 
superuser mode. All these deleted and having only the 0 and 1 snapshots, 
I have less than 600 M in root from 40 G. And I have no idea where is 
the rest of the space?

Can I get any help?
