I'm running 12.04. When I ran update manager today it tried to install kernel 3.8.0-33 which very quickly filled the hdd to 100% and this particular file had become 35G: /lib/modules/3.8.0-33-generic/modules.ccwmap
in htop I saw that depmod was using 100% of one of the cores. I've since deleted that file and apt-get purged everything related to this kernel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1232473 Title: depmod fills disk to 100% with invisible modules.ccwmap To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1232473/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
