Description of your issue:
Due to a problem with the AHRS/air pressure sensor board and/or the i2c bus on the Raspberry Pi, many thousands of lines of error messages are being logged, e.g. in syslog:
Feb 19 02:04:15 stratux gen_gdl90[474]: 2022/02/19 02:04:15 BMP280 Warning: error reading sensor data: BMP280 Error reading from F7: %!s(
and in kern.log also many lines such as these:
Feb 19 02:04:59 stratux kernel: [ 119.007494] i2c-bcm2835 3f804000.i2c: i2c transfer timed out Feb 19 02:05:28 stratux kernel: [ 148.351601] i2c-bcm2835 3f804000.i2c: i2c transfer timed out Feb 19 02:05:52 stratux kernel: [ 172.383441] i2c-bcm2835 3f804000.i2c: i2c transfer timed out
After a couple hours, the Stratux runs out of space (Free Storage: 0.0 MiB):
- System uptime 26306 seconds. Daemon was restarted.
- AHRS Error: Couldn't read pressure from sensor: Pressure is 0
- Disk bytes used = 259 MB (98.9 %), Disk bytes free = 3.0 MB (1.1 %)
- Write error on '/var/lib/misc/', your EFB may have issues receiving weather and traffic.
- Barometric altitude 9942' out of expected range. Ignoring. Pressure sensor potentially broken.
Uhm... yes, I know there is something wrong with the sensors.
However, with the read only FS and writing the logs to RAM (?), I feel that running out of space whether after 2 hours or several days shouldn't be a thing, even if it is, with fully with functional hardware, a somewhat unlikely scenario.

I am not able to perform an apt update because there is not enough free space.
I am not able to expand the FS

That is more or less unrelated. See https://github.com/b3nn0/stratux/wiki/Read-only-filesystem
