Getting no space left on device while running geth --datadir ./datadir console



I am following this tutorial for setting up a private blockchain and while running below command.


geth --datadir ./datadir console



It ran for 15-20 hours and then returned below error.



CRIT [08-31|09:54:14.764] Failed to store last header's hash err="write
/home/ubuntu/medium-article/datadir/datadir/geth/chaindata/388142.log:
no space left on device"



From the error log its clear this is memory issue but When i check the free memory using df -h the output is given below.


df -h


Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 32G 4.0K 32G 1% /dev
tmpfs 6.3G 932K 6.3G 1% /run
/dev/sda1 55G 52G 0 100% /
none 4.0K 0 4.0K 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
none 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock
none 32G 0 32G 0% /run/shm
none 100M 0 100M 0% /run/user



Could you please give me some hint where i am going wrong?

write /home/ubuntu/medium-article/datadir/datadir/geth/chaindata/388142.log: no space left on device



There is no more disk space. These are the relevant lines from df -h:


df -h


Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 55G 52G 0 100% /



You will need a bigger hard drive.
