Frank,
>From your notes

Used: 2273368
Available: 49547712
Use%: 5%

100*(2273368/(2273368+49547712)) is approximately 5%

Total free is about 47.25 GB, total used is about 2.17 GB, for a volume size
of about 49.42 GB. 

It might be instructive to know if you have multiple partitions in use, as I
believe by default Linux builds will create separate vm and root partitions.

What does the result of
df -h 
look like?
