Let's hope.
Wish you a nice evening

Hello,

check if the package "linux-image-extra-virtual" is installed on your VM, otherwise the quotatools will not work

dpkg-query: no packages found matching linux-image-extra-virtual

I'll install it and get back to you.
Thanks for the fast answer!

Still not working:

update: i wanted to update the previous post to add a note but couldn't edit the post anymore:
the admin dashboard shows now 32KB (KiB?) which is not correct.
Obviously i triggered the relative maintenance interval responsible for calculating the disk space various times, just to be sure.

I don't have a solution for your actual problem, sorry, but:

Luckily, you can change that display behaviour like you want:

Binary, what is right, and decimal, which has nothing to do with computers. That would be a discussion for it's own, but it's nice that KeyHelp leaves you the option

So if you grew up with computers in the last century, you'll want to choose binary for calculation base and decimal for prefixes, and everything looks like you expect.

GWbasic spaghetti-code, Fortran, MS-DOS, intel 80286 with an awesome 10MHz clock speed and 21MHz in turbo mode,lol
Good old times, things were easy back then.

Thanks again!

C64 was my first

oh, so you remember the commodore 64 cassette tape. Loved to play games on it..
i also still have some old giant ram modules at home (50 cm x 50cm), old books (e.g. microprocessor based analog/digital conversion, how to build your own screen, ecc..).
Other stuff has been given to a museum.
The bulges you see on the top of these machines was the place for the "hard disks": Unfortunately lots of knowledge is getting lost from generation to generation, people aren't interested anymore in basic things.

As the issue is solved, I think OT is OK

Yes, I owned one of the 1530 Datasette, but I hated it

But over the years my C64 setup grew (display, printer, floppies* …), it was so much fun, so much to learn.

Currently I have my best computer ever, but I think that topic is really out of scope for this thread.

* The 1541 had two spots on the board which you could just cut short, or add a switch, one to switch between id 8 and 9, and one to turn off disk protection, so you could write to the second side of a disk without adding a hole to it. Was a lot of fun to surprise people with that
(Oh, I just opened the disk housing and swapped sides … many believed )
