"Docker Error"... "No space left on device"

Broadly though, yes, I think you’re right and that we could add a note in the docs.

FYI that well over a year later you still have not updated the documentation to state that 1TB is actually not enough storage for running a bitcoin node:

Start9 Docs

Those are the old v0351 docs.

StartOS v040 can still run Bitcoin, its probably still the most popular service on the platform. I think individual services should be responsible for explaining their own system requirements. Despite the popularity of any particular service, I don’t think StartOS Docs can list the individual requirements of 150+ services, or even know what they all are.

I found it (you could have linked to it): Installing StartOS - StartOS

I knew you thought that, but figured maybe we were past that point. Especially after you said as much. I guess not.

When did I, or anyone, even imply that to be a request, or argument, here? Answer: never once. Either you are just sidetracking intentionally, or maybe answering dialog here isn’t really your forte. If self-running a bitcoin node is what Start9 frequently mentioned, marketed, and were known for, then it should have been properly documented. My running out of storage, along with at least one other here, based on the documentation, PROVES that it was insufficient in that ONE case (not all of them, which you literally just made up yourself.)

And continues to be the case. So I’m done with this sidetracked discussion. I simply cannot recommend Start to anyone wanting to run their own DIY node moving forward, because it’s just simply too unsupported without the threat of major wasted resources.

Good day.

Fair enough. While we love our DIY-ers. As a business that is not yet profitable, Start9’s primary focus is on issues that effect our customers. StartOS is built for, and tested on specific hardware that we sell. I expect in the future, we will have the luxury of focusing on issued outside of that scope. But we’re not there yet. In the meantime, we maintain and interact with this forum regularly. We encourage our DIY community to interact, and share information among yourselves that may be helpful in that regard.
