Could you have any other method.

for unix shell (its *not* 'dos mode', MSDOS is a legacy system of Microsoft), du is the command to use.

    du -hs /*

will give you a summary of the space used by every top level directory. ignore /dev /proc and /sys as they aren't real directories, theya re pseudo file systems. if it turns out, for example, that /var is the biggest pig, then

    du -hs /var/*

to see the totals of whats in each folder in /var

rinse, repeat...
