#UBUNTU CLEAN DISK SPACE ARCHIVE#
However you should expect no speed up of your system. Free up disk space on Ubuntu - clean log, cache, archive packages/apt archives, orphaned packages, old kernel and remove the trash Raw. I'll just empty the directory /tmp and wondering if there is any other location to clean up.
#UBUNTU CLEAN DISK SPACE INSTALL#
To remove configuration files of all uninstalled packages. How do I free up disk space Ask Question Asked 12 years, 9 months ago Modified 2 months ago Viewed 550k times 237 My Ubuntu cloud server has left only 900MB of disk space. The system Cleaner section gives you the option to search for and clean potentially unnecessary files of four types: Apt Cache: If you read our guide to apt-get commands, you already know that every time you install packages with the apt command, the downloaded package files are cached.
If not, then you could empty the log files. Any additional parameters will be passed directly to apt-get (8). By default, it will keep at least the latest 2 kernels, but the user can override that value using the keep parameter. It will never remove the currently running kernel. If there are user data, move that out first. purge-old-kernels will remove old kernel and header packages from the system, freeing disk space. See here to find out what is taking the place. If you want to remove configurations files from uninstalled packages you can either call dpkg -purge PACKAGENAMEįor each package you want to remove or use dpkg -l | awk '/^rc/ ' | xargs -no-run-if-empty sudo dpkg -purge 1 Answer Sorted by: 3 The trick will be to try to release a minimum of space, so that apt-get can work again. These configuration files are the only thing not deleted by APT when uninstalling a package (because you might want to use then again in the future).
Usually it is better to not touch these files unless you know what you are doing. There is also no system wide registry as in Windows, but a lot of programs have configuration files in /etc. Your system doesn't get slower if there are many packages installed (as long as you still have a reasonable amount of free disk space). APT keeps tracks of which package installed which file and removes them when uninstalling a package. On Linux there usually is no need to clean your system, even after multiple updates.
