Actually I have a network drive (1TB, should be 2TB but it is
misconfigured, another story) and it is fill.  MythTv is not making more
space.  So worried am I!  I expect I have uncovered a bug to do with my
disc setup, but for now I am not too concerned about that, I urgently
need to bet rid of the 700G of files flagged as deleted.

I am wondering how to use the delete forever function....
