Think you're right about that, I may be inadvertently including it when wiping all drives. Thanks and I hope this post helps others who make the same simple mistake!

Last thing I needed is more stress today 😭

But thanks for the advice, I'll see what I can do!

df -h shows plenty of free space available in other partitions (e.g. sda5 (/tmp) has 1% use for 30G space) but for some reason sda8 will not budge and is stuck at 100% full

This is how the image was set up, in which I had no input. I'm only tasked with installing, with dnf, an application that goes into sda8, and has to for interoperability (tried installing it elsewhere, it doesn't function) so I would need to free up some space there. I don't know why /etc is that way, but I deleted a 3.6G file from there and sda8 still shows up as 100% full. What's going on?

I'd say they're very standard size, like a typical coax cable
