Make sure that you have enough disk space and that your disk is setup correctly. Some providers will set you up in bad ways, including if you have a RAID. So one user reported they only had 14GB of disk space (yes, you RABBIT). Inspecting it, the provider made his boot disk /dev/root. Seems like that's a good thing right? Wrong... that folder truly had 20GB of space, while the rest of his 1.7TB was locked in another /dev/md4 folder. The mistake, setting up the disk incorrectly. If you are installing this in a VM or through wholesaleinternet (and some other providers, you will not have any problems with any default settings).

To check your diskspace, type:

df -h

You'll see something like this: [This example is a Wholesale Internet server]

USER@MACHINENAME:~$ df -h
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/dm-0       1.8T  429G  1.3T  26% /
udev             10M     0   10M   0% /dev
tmpfs           3.2G  355M  2.8G  12% /run
tmpfs           7.9G  3.0M  7.9G   1% /dev/shm
tmpfs           5.0M     0  5.0M   0% /run/lock
tmpfs           7.9G     0  7.9G   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
/dev/sda1       236M   34M  190M  16% /boot

Pay attention to the space that you have. The eaiest way to find out what disk you're using in my limited experience is to is to install plexguide, then install SABNZBD. Open SABNZBD and if the diskspace doesn't look right to you, it is you.
