2 years ago Hello @maxone11, what filesystem are you using with the secondary Steam library?
/run/media/<user>/<partition id> reads like an automounted drive by the desktop environment. It might be interesting to add the partition to /etc/fstab so that it is persistently mounted at boot and test if that influences the Steam client's behavior.

2 years ago the btrfs file system to the disk for games, and the system one I use ext 4. You think you need to change the file system to ext4.

2 years ago Thanks for the additional detail. I'm not aware of any btrfs-specific issues with Steam managing Steam libraries that would make me suggest switching away from it.

2 years ago I can reproduce a similar issue since a few days ago on Fedora 34. I have a primary 1 TB SSD and a secondary 500 GB SSD with games. Both have dozens of GBs of available space. However, I can no longer choose which disk I install new games on. Worse, games that were installed on the secondary 500 GB SSD are no longer listed as installed. The drive is listed as having 0 bytes available:
I can't install any games anymore since Steam refuses to let the installation continue.

Your system information
Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
Describe what you expected should happen and what did happen. Please link any large code pastes as a Github Gist I'm trying to install the game from the library on another disk. Downloading and checking for errors goes fine, you can even start the game. As soon as the computer is turned off or restarted, the game becomes unavailable. The steam client shows that the game is not installed, but in fact it is on the disk. And after that, even if I try to install other games, a message comes out of the library saying that there is no disk space, but there is. The games are normally installed and work if I install them on the system disk, but it is impossible to play normally on the hard disk that I chose to install the games after shutting down or restarting the computer.
