/var/lib/ureadahead/debugfs using up disk space
- by Keyo
Running Ubuntu 10.04 and nearly all my drive space is gone.
# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/ubuntu-root
7.3G 6.6G 327M 96% /
none 245M 240K 244M 1% /dev
none 249M 0 249M 0% /dev/shm

none 249M 0 249M 0% /lib/init/rw
/dev/sda1 228M 34M 183M 16% /boot
Of course it's not mounted. I read that chmod 0 /sbin/debugfs could fix the problem, but now it just won't mount despite changing the permission to 777. This is a VM running on VirtualBox. I have done a file system check which ran fine.
What is this directory and how can I remove it from the system?
