Post subject:  after lock up I am out of disk space

I was watching a DVD from the hard drive and the system locked up and after a reboot now the gui will not start. If I puddy into the box it says that the / drive is 100% full. Does anyone know what would have filled it up. I have tried to use the locate command and the find command to find large files but I don't think I am using it correctly. I have also tried to search on here but I get a strange php error when I do.

this is my FE/BE box and I am running 5C7 of knoppmyth.

Thanks for any help anyone can give.

Search for directions on how to enable log roll over on that file to prevent recurances. You may also want to check and repair your DB following the directions in Cecil's sicky posting.
