Hi, Anyone
Before we left for the Christmas holiday, I powered down my FC4 box.
(My wife is paranoid that way.) KDiskFree showed my root partition a
bit over 50% full. Within hours of starting it up again a few days ago,
it was pushing 100%, and I haven't been able to find the culprit. The
file system is reiserfs (I installed FC4 over an old SuSE distro), if
that makes a difference. Has anyone run into this? Is there a tool I
can use to report the space occupied by each folder, to try to identify
the cause? I've deleted some old stuff from /var and /tmp, but that
only recovered about 350 mB; I'm still missing some 5 gig.
Cheers,
Gordon Keehn
