Brtfs reserved space - how to clean?
I'm running bazzite on steam deck. Recently all the free space is gone. Deleting games is not solving this. I found that I need to run
btrfs rescue clear-space-cache v2 /dev/nvme0n1p3 but the /nix folder is mounted on this partition. Is there any helper that can do this during boot or do I need to boot from usb and do it from there. On steam deck it's a bit annoying so I would prefer a different solution. Currently everything I'm doing is through ssh.3 Replies
