Hi folks,

I'm running FC3 and ran out of disk space.

After deleting a huge - and I mean approx 5Gb - worth of files, the df output still shows 0% free. None of these files were linked to other files. They should be well truly gone.

Rebooting and forcing a fsck doesn't seem to have solved the problem.

A reboot didn't solve it? Generally that's an indication that some process has the file open. Can you do an lsof on one of the (deleted) filenames to see if something has it open? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
