I had a 'test' directory in /mnt/ that held some 2GB for files.
Deleting that cleared up enough space for a while. Muchos gracias.

| Post subject: | Help me find disk space |
My system recently ran out of space on / and so they system locked and wouldn't start the front/backend processes. I went in and deleted the MySQL logs, but that only freed up 220MB. I am curious if there are other things I can look at to delete so that I can free up more space. Here is where it looks to be mostly distributed: Code: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on I pulled out the entries for /myth as they are on another drive. Does the KnoppMyth install really take up 4.2GB? Is there something in one of these directories that I could probably remove?

The folders I would be looking at for space would be: /var/logs /tmp /home/mythtv /home/your-user-name /root Since the / partition is finite in space it can fill up rather quickly, especially if you have downloaded source and compiled and installed but not removed the source files. |

go to the root folder Code: cd / type the following to see how big each folder and file is Code: du -sh * look at the folders and see what is taking up all the space. Most likely somthing in /var/logs For somthing to compare to here is one of my frontends that has a pretty clean install Code: root@mythtv-bedroom:/# du -sh *

IIRC 5C1 had issues with not rotating logs, there should be a fix somewhere else here. If you you use mythstream a lot to listen to po^Wnetcasts or internet radio you will run out space on / as the mythtv home directory (where the downloaded files are) is held on the same partition. Bruce S. |

Should my /var/lib/mysql/mythconverg be 86MB, or is this normal for a system that has been used for a for over a year? |

Mine is 136Mb... Code: root@black2:~# du -m /var/lib/mysql/mythconverg
136 /var/lib/mysql/mythconverg So that seems pretty reasonable to me. |
