root out of space -- tried factory reset from gui and clearing nvram

[cuekay]

Hello. I've been having issues with a number of services in entware running and during my investigation, found this:

admin@TM-AC1900:/tmp/home/root# df
Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root                28928     28928         0 100% /
devtmpfs                127752         0    127752   0% /dev
tmpfs                   127856       916    126940   1% /tmp
/dev/mtdblock4           64256      1716     62540   3% /jffs
admin@TM-AC1900:/tmp/home/root#

Issues started with Transmission giving me errors and the service stopping. I uninstalled Transmission but saw the system log giving "insufficient disk space" errors and left me with the inability to nano edit a file without it giving me a memory error.

I was wondering how I can clear up some space as I had tried to factory reset from the webgui and also clearing nvram using the "mtd-erase2 nvram", which appeared to have worked in other respects in that the webgui refreshed to the setup page. Any help would be much appreciated.

root always shows as 100% in use (read only fs that contains the firmware). Don't see anything out of the ordinary.

The one you need to monitor if you are getting disk space messages is tmpfs.

phew. Thanks john9527. I may have to look elsewhere for my memory issues then.
