i've found a file call ubuntu.000 i think is this but i can't delete it and is big only 908 byte, the creation date is exact, but i think is just a configuration file.

From a terminal, try:

sudo find / -mtime -5

... where "-5" means "files changed within the last 5 days". You can use any value here e.g. -1 for stuff changed in the 24 hours.

From a terminal, try:

sudo du -h --max-depth=3 /

This will show you the disk usage (down to 3 levels), and may help you "narrow in" on the file if the find command doesn't work.

The partimage (console) GUI should also show you where the image file is created.

Can you help with this problem?
