GL-MT300N-V2 - GL.iNet after upgrade to 3.201 Free space: 6% (0 MB)

can we compare, please?

and what size exactly is being reported by those %%?

The Luci percentages all compute out to a percentage of 4MB, which would be around the 3.6M mounted as /overlay, left over from from the 16M flash memory not used by the firmware. I think the GL GUI might be reporting it as a percent of the entire flash memory.

If I do df -h, I have 10.5M used and 0 available in /dev/root, mounted as /rom, and 1.5M available of 3.8M in /dev/mtdblock6, mounted as /overlay.

Not sure how you have 6.3M in overlay, which implies more than 16M flash.

OK, i figured - bind utility took the extra space. would be still great if the frm upgrade would check the space and advise.

I realize this is an old thread, but I’m having a similar problem.
Brand new X750V2 w/ 16Mb of flash memory.
Came with 3.201 installed.
I haven’t done an upgrade or added anything.
When I attempt to install Luci, a get the “Not Enough Flash Space” message.

I’m think you need read this thread link
