Re: upgrade problem: space on '/' filesystem.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have machinesthat / is only 20G and I have been able to upgrade
them.   So you should probably figure out what is using the space.

cd / and run this:
du -sh * | grep G

and ignore anything that is a separate mount.   Once you find a
largish directory then cd into it and repeat the above command.
