Hello Thomas - Thanks for looking at this. I hope I got your email right!

Or run as root:

du -hs /*

This will tell you how much space each directory is taking. I'm betting your /var directory is full of something.
-------------------------
This shows:

7.6M    /bin
7.7M    /boot
136K    /dev
104M    /etc
1.5M    /gtypist-2.6.2-buildroot
39G     /home
96K     /k12ltsp-release-root
194M    /lib
18M     /lib64
16K     /lost+found
8.0K    /media
8.0K    /misc
8.0K    /mnt
0       /net
86G     /old-slash
545M    /opt
2.1G    /proc
4.6M    /root
23M     /sbin
8.0K    /selinux
20K     /srv
0       /sys
16M     /tftpboot
808K    /tmp
5.7G    /usr
16G     /var

/home and /old-slash are different partitions:
[root@christiansens ~]# df -h
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1              48G   48G     0 100% /
tmpfs                1004M     0 1004M   0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda3              96G   40G   52G  44% /home
/dev/sdb1             143G   86G   50G  64% /old-slash

So... Everything on /dev/sda1 should add up to something roughly 25 gigs, not 48!!!

Help!

Thanks, Jim


I'm betting there is some process which is holding a file handle open even though something has been deleted. Reboot and I bet you get the free space back.
