Post subject:  Mythbox keeps filling primary partition

The box is currently on 5A12. I'm going to upgrade now, but see if any of you have any idea about this problem.

It runs fine for a while. Then it will stop working, and refuse to boot X. Upon inspection, it turns out that / is 100% full. Upon further inspection, 40% of that space is taken up by logs (somewhere in /var).

When the logs are deleted the computer will boot once more.

The computer is a Semperon running at 1.5Ghz, with a PVR350 card used for both input and output. The hard drive is 160GB, and it was partitioned automatically by Knoppmyth upon install.

This problem has occurred even after a complete reformat and reinstall.

Find the big log file and see what the message in it is. If that doesnt help you work itout, post the message here.

OK, will do so when it does it again. Have just reinstalled, and it's running fairly sweetly at the moment.
