Hello,
I have the following configuration of a Linux machine.

# uname -a

Linux test01 2.4.21-27.0.4.ELsmp #1 SMP Fri Apr 22 16:15:42 CDT 2005
i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

#df -h

When I try to creste a file on / file system, I get the following error.
# touch a
No space left on device

Any idea why I get this message? I removed an existing SW(RPM file)
and want to install the latest version of the same SW without success.
Then I tried the command "touch a" without success. 
I looked in /var/log and removed some old log files(not big one)
Still no success.

Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Kumar
