I faced a space problem on my Ubuntu instance in Oracle Cloud. There is only 4 GB left(after cleaning), however I expect that there should be much more available space.
When I run df -h I get this result:
ubuntu@instance-20240728-1613:/dev$ df -h

47 GB available, 41 GB used.
I tried to figure out what takes all the space using ncdu.
But it found only 14 GB.

How to find out what all the space is?
Why there is a difference of 35 GB between ncdu and df -h?
