Solved same devices, same sd cards, not the same storage consumption?
#1
Hi,

I have 2 Kodi devices. Slave1 and Slave2 - both on the same raspberries and the same size of sd cards. Slave2 is the newest and was copied by dd-command.
Today I've checked my storage on the cards and was wondering why they are different. 

I have the latest LibreElec on both devices.

Output complete capacity Slave1:
Code:

MediaSlave1:~ # df -h
Filesystem                Size      Used Available Use% Mounted on
devtmpfs                338.5M         0    338.5M   0% /dev
/dev/mmcblk0p1          255.7M    141.2M    114.5M  55% /flash
/dev/mmcblk0p2            6.9G      5.2G      1.7G  75% /storage
/dev/loop0              131.1M    131.1M         0 100% /
tmpfs                   344.0M         0    344.0M   0% /dev/shm
tmpfs                   344.0M      6.0M    338.1M   2% /run
tmpfs                   344.0M         0    344.0M   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs                   344.0M     20.0K    344.0M   0% /var
tmpfs                   344.0M         0    344.0M   0% /tmp

Output complete capacity Slave2:
Code:

MediaSlave2:~ # df -h
Filesystem                Size      Used Available Use% Mounted on
devtmpfs                338.5M         0    338.5M   0% /dev

/dev/mmcblk0p2            6.9G      2.8G      4.1G  41% /storage
/dev/loop0              131.1M    131.1M         0 100% /
tmpfs                   344.0M         0    344.0M   0% /dev/shm
tmpfs                   344.0M      6.5M    337.6M   2% /run
tmpfs                   344.0M         0    344.0M   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs                   344.0M     20.0K    344.0M   0% /var
tmpfs                   344.0M         0    344.0M   0% /tmp

As you can see: available storage takes 2.8G vs 1.7G - why

So I wanted to get deeper:

Output /storage capacity Slave1:

It is 100% the same - I'm not new to linux but how can this output makes sense...I'm already root, nothing is hided here....where are the approx. 2,4GB are hiding itself?!

I am eager to your responses....I don't get it until now....?!?!

Did you properly flush after the dd command?

I've used the sync command and properly disconnected the sd card(s).

du  won't show hidden files and folders (in linux anything starting with a . is "hidden") when called the way you did.
* is a shell glob, which won't expand to hidden dotfiles.

tldr: use 
bash:
du -ahd1

Thank you very much! It was a temp file in the video screensaver. Thank you :-)
