You've left out quite a few details if a 1.7 GB problem requires a 320
GB solution.
See below, I need to buy a new drive and clone and retire the existing
drive. There's no space for a new drive.
What mount point should I use, and what do I need to copy to the drive
before mounting it there?
/var/cache/yum
Nothing needs to be copied, unless you wanted to preserve what has
already been downloaded, but "yum clean all" took care of that...
Thanks.
[1] To solve that properly requires acquiring a drive larger then 320 Gbytes
and cloning the existing drive - adding a drive isn't possible. F10 has to
suit me better than F9 does, or I'm more likely to give the space to
Windows.
I won't even take *that* bait... :-)
:-)
xen on F9 is basically useless (in my hands).
KVM is better, but prone to hanging guests.
VirtualPC and VirtualServer work.
I have the system principally for running virtual machines. (CentOS5 is
pretty unsatisfactory, for any purpose except maybe a headless server)
on the machine in question.
