Fedora says my disk is full, but it isnt

What is happening? I got a fancy ultrabook to work. It has one of those hard drives that has 500gb of hard disk and 20gb of solid state drive.


I've mounted the main OS partitions on the solid state. /, /root and the swap partition


The /home is on the hard disk but fedora is dumb and is not understanding this and tells me my disk is full.


Is there a way of telling that to Fedora 'Hey, don't count home space, because it's in a different hard drive' ?



  • sdb = solid state

  • sda = hard disk


THis is my df -h
