The volume local has ( - ) space
by Sudharshans from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4STC5)
Since I installed Mint 19 in March, I have been getting this message on screen very frequently. Cinnamon version 3.8.9, Linux Kernel 4.15.0-65-generic, Memory 7.7GB and Hard Disk 1735GB.
The volume local has ( - ) space The space varies every time.
Last couple of weeks the computer restarts automatically and when the desktop mint screen comes on a similar message appears before i even touch the keyboard.
Not sure if both are related issues.
The volume local is mounted as /usr/local and it has 55GB allocated space now.
I tried to increase the space using Gparted but it did not allow me to increase more than 5GB.
Any thoughts! Thank you
