Hello world,
I’ve had kernel panicking issues since August and I think it might be related to the Root partition becoming full. I’m going to apologize about thinking that Arch from scratch would fit on 50GB. So I’ve made sure I have atleast 7GB free on the / from clearing caches.
I used Equibop before going to sleep and like always I close it completely before going to be so the notifications come to my phone instead.
Today morning it didn’t work. Opening shows Equibop and its required processes in the System monitor but nothing shows up. And what happens is that the root partition fills up. And then while full after some time Equibop presumably crashes and the available space returns.
What is going on ?
I tried
- Pacman - syuu
- Restarted the pc
- Uninstalling with kept files
- Uninstalling deleting all files
- Also removed some cache files

What happens if you disable Equibop? Does it still fill up?
Here is the thing, I would like to continue using Equibop. As shutdown it doesn’t do anything, only when I start it the issue comes up.
To help narrow down the problem, I’d like to see whether your drive still fills up with it completely disabled.
Do you have another drive? If you’ve got another drive (say, for /home), perhaps you could create a directory on that bigger drive, and bind mount it to the directory that is getting full.
But first I kinda want to know exactly what’s filling it - maybe it’s as simple as setting logging on something to a less verbose setting, or some such.
I never ended up reinstalling Equibop, and installed Goofcord. But the same issue came up while streaming the screen. So there is some issue with flatpak, wayland recording, the equicord base, chromium or something else.
