Space for system prevents update on Jolla C [answered]

Trying to update tells me that there is not enough space. Unfortunately I fail to free space as I cannot find the location that is occupied by the "system" partition. Can anybody help me here which directories could free space for the system partition.

I was able to free some space as root user, but it is really hard to determine which directory belongs to system partition and which to user (/home/nemo of course)...

I wonder what happened on your device as all those Android files should not be on your system partition.

Did you manually copy things to /data?

I migrated from a Jolla 1, so this is quite likely when I copied over data.

This problem has been solved by getting rid of dead files in /data directory.
