Access to more than 4GB of non-volite storage possible on the O/S itself?

I have installed via Baremetal ISO and the physical host is setup with Mirrored 16GB S.D. cards for the o/s while all non-OS storage is provided via iSCSI.

The problem I running into is I can't seem to avoid filling up the 204MB available on /dev/mapper/pve-root (which is just a syslink to /dev/dmX).

I have tried creating a new user in /home/$user but even storing files there, eats up the free space on /dev/mapper/pve-root

The largest problem is I have my google-drive mounted (via google-drive-ocamlfuse (or gdfuse)) to /mnt/drive and set the SNAPSHOT location to be /mnt/drive and set the cache limit to be 96 MB (to prevent the 204MB on /dev/mapper/pve-root being used, even though it shouldn't be) and instead.... the "dump" folder (used for snapshot locations) immediately fills up the /dev/mapper/pve-root even though im not storing data there.

Is my only option to start over with debian as the main o/s with Proxmox as an application?

Thank you,
Scott
