I installed the F37 beta, but couldn’t get wayland to work, so I reinstalled F36.
I am now missing most of my 1TB SSD. I have backups, so this isn’t a major disaster (though annoying) – but what could have happened?
That is (subtracting the size of the 128-GB kcore file),
# find / -ls | awk '{ sum += $7 } END { print sum -= 140737471594496 }'
produces 9,426,254,134 as the sum of the sizes of all files (9,205,326 1-k blocks).
However, df . shows 941,543,424 total blocks, 667,930,412 used blocks, and 271,397,556 available blocks.
So I’m missing 630 GB, which is about the size of the data I had before the reinstallation.
lsblk shows the expected partitions and sizes (biosboot, boot, efi, swap, and the home and root brtfs).
I have avoided, as much as is possible, writing anything to disk, though I’m hoping that my missing data is in some safe limbo-like place that I’ll eventually find a way to access.
Should I try to install F36 again?
Any other suggestions?
