I have used rpi-clone to clone my 16 GB SD card on to another 4 GB, I haven't installed much so there should be plenty of space. I checked with gParted before and it said the partition was only used about 2.7 GB.

The clone boots up fine and I can run the binaries I already had on it, but I am unable to write anything new. It says there is no space left on the device. I tried to delete some files but it continues to say there is no free space. Even is I just try to change a single character in a textfile after having deleted a much larger program I get the error.

df reports this:

$ df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs 3808912 3591148 24280 100% /
/dev/root 3808912 3591148 24280 100% /
devtmpfs 183620 0 183620 0% /dev
tmpfs 38376 284 38092 1% /run
tmpfs 5120 0 5120 0% /run/lock
tmpfs 76740 0 76740 0% /run/shm
/dev/mmcblk0p1 57288 18928 38360 34% /boot
tmpfs 76740 0 76740 0% /tmp

Can you help me?

Did you figure out what was causing the problem?

Yes it was my mistake entirely. I was in fact missing space on my cards. Rpi-clone worked like a charm. I purged all gui packages and a lot of localisation stuff then I found enough room.
