You can run this to force an fsck of the root filesystem on the next
reboot:
touch /forcefsck

If you follow the common practice of keeping the previous kernel as a
spare for troubleshooting purposes, then this is sadly normal these
days. There's 100MB
I knew because you said that you had tried to backup some files to storage and
sdb13 was not mounted on storage. So where those files went was into /
partition. When you mounted sdb13 on top of /storage, all those files became
inaccessible but they were still there taking up stace.
This happened

Hust a little hint:
If you have no encrypted partitions, you can resize your partitions using
"gparted". Best use is, to run it from a livefile cd

I forget why I made it so big, but perhaps because I was

Where do you see 500GiB? It says 474440 blocks of 1KB size or 463MiB.

You are missing the option "-xdev" for find to prevent it from crossing
filesystem boundaries. This leads to:

Same problem was discussed recently on this list (e.g.,
https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2014/05/msg00665.html and
https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2014/05/msg00684.html )
In short:
- to check space in the filesystem
du / -hx --max-depth=1
- to check for deleted files still not used by
This is such a classic problem that I hesitate to raise the
question. The df below shows that the usual suspects for root partition
being full are broken out. The / partition is 500 Mb. In the past I have
only used about 50 Mb.
