OK, I don't get it... Zorin OS, running in a UTM virtual machine, keeps complaining that it's running out of memory, but when I click the notification it tells me it tells me it's using 24Gb out of a 32Gb disk partition
I thought it might be the VM memory allocation, but I've upped that from 6000MiB to 8000MiB & the system still says it's running out. I can't even figure out if it's a Linux or VM issue 🤯

Are you sure it's about disk space and not RAM? -

Does it take into consideration the hibernate file? -

Does it take into consideration the hibernate file?@ohmrun I have no idea what that means.

Are you sure it's about disk space and not RAM?@etam No. And I don't know how to find out - or what to do about it if I do.

@jwcph You gave your VM a bigger disk, but not a bigger filesystem. You need to manually increase it.
You need to run - probably - `sudo resize2fs /dev/sda2`. You might be able to do it in the GUI there. Select Partition 2 and then use the gear menu there. -
@ohmrun I have no idea what that means.
@jwcph Sorry, that's windows speak. There's certainly discrepancies between what 'df -h' and 'baobab' report on usage, sometimes quite large.

@etam No. And I don't know how to find out - or what to do about it if I do.
@jwcph If you need more help, open a system monitor (in ZorinOS, inside VM), sort by memory usage and make a screenshot when the alert appears again.

@etam Thank you, very kind!
