Devuan 4 Chimaera
Live graphical installation
3 separate partitions
/root
/swap
/home (using for others distros, and have user folders)

After long installation of Devuan 4. OS booted normally but space on /root partition is fully used by "target_home" folder witch contain full copy of separate /home partition?! I am ask what is the mess?! Why installation make unneeded copy of /home to /root partition?!

Seriously, your last whining post was about glitches in Ceres, which is unstable, and is not meant for production use.

Proof?! For my old pc unstable works faster than stable.

Because root and home partitions on same disk. Home folder use almost 90% of this disk and i have very many installed and compiled software that i do not want to loose or starting installing or compiling from scratch.
