I always used to use the command "du -sk *" to get a quick indication
of where all my disk space was going.
Now, because I have a few slow external filesystems mounted, it no
longer works in a finite time and I can't see how to get it to skip
the slow file systems.
If I "cd /" and give the command "du -skx *" it *doesn't* skip the
mounted filesystems because they're mounted on root directories. E.g.
home# du -sk *
83266088 a2
53643968 backup
6448 bin
14009 boot
4 cd
200 dev
121800 etc
/a2 is actually a mount point for another file system and the next
one, /freecom, never gets displayed because it's too slow.
The -X option doesn't work either because it excludes files, not
directories.
So how can I get an idea of the size of the various directories on my
root file system? There seems no easy way.
