| Post subject: | Disk Space issues on HDA1 |
Hi All, My box has been running well for at least 6 months. I reciently updated my 'myth' partition to use LVM2 with two added hard drives. That went well and now I have a LOT more space for my recordings and music. My question is... Some how I ran out of disk space on HDA1 (not my LVM drive I just included that info incase it mattered). I didn't realize I had put anything on HDA1 except some themes I installed reciently. I couldn't start X because it was not able to write an authorization file. I went in and deleted the linux games that come preinstalled and that gave me enough space to restart my box. However when I went to restart it again I was magically out of space again. What can I do to free up some disk space so I don't keep running into this error? What can I safely get rid of in my HDA1 partition? (everything execpt what is in my 'myth' folder)?!? Any help is GREATLY appriciated |

The first step is to see what keeps filling it up. Do a Code: du -hs /*
to get a list of the size of all directories under the root directory. You can do the same 'du' command inside a subdirectory that you suspect of filling up, until you get to the point of finding the culprit files. For example, it could be /var/log/messages, /usr/tmp, or so on. |

In particular, check mysql.log to see if it's gigabytes in size. http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=10273 |
