Disk Full Problem....

This leads me to a question I have been asking myself for a while. I was
wondering if anyone has a script, or knows of a way to see where these
large files are hiding.

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Do you have another disk you can move the database to?  It's not that
hard to tell MySQL to use a database from another disk.  The default is
/var/lib/mysql/

In an emergency basis, you might be able to clean up some space in some
of your other large directories.  For example, clean up /var/log and
/var/spool/up2date (the rpm and hdr files can be safely deleted - you
can always download them again if you need to).
