SYSTEM UPDATE FAILED

I am very close to fully adapting Bazzite as my go to OS for steam and retro games. so i decided to install ALL of my steam games but forgot that i did some partitioning between windows and linux so the space allocated for bazzite isnt as big as before. As expected, it made the whole disk RED (full). ive decided to remove the games that take too much space but i noticed that the /-drive or directory in dolphin is still red despite significant removal of files. i keep receiving SOME SYSTEM UPDATES FAILED notification referring to DISTROBOXES for USER . i dont know what it means. is there a way to fix this? including some screenshots in this post. thank you for helping! πŸ™‚ in the photo you can see the RED / directory in dolphin and teh notification

The red directory is just an issue with Dolphin, the correct one is the 1.5TB that is around 90% full still way too close for comfort

youre right. i manually looked for it, hostname folder isnt tehre just received a system update now. for some reason, the distro issue is no longer there. update must have fixed itself but the red line in the dolphin is still there. at least i's less annoyung thanks everyone

you can just hide it if the red line is annoying hopefully dolphin can fix this in the future

pls forget it. i noticed that there is a "hostname" tab that gets opened by default. apparently this was from my previous sessions. i simply deleted the tab and voila. haha it's so hard being noob at linux πŸ˜› but it's getting fun
