Hello,
but "du -xk --max-depth=1 /" will not include a file say
"/home/user1/movies/virumandi.avi" in its calculation of the disk usage of /
. Is that ok?
If it's not part of the root fs, that's exactly what the OP wants. Try this:
sudo du -m --max-depth=2 / | sort -n
You will find where the space in your root filesystem's gone. I do this
fairly regularly, whenever I find I'm running out of space. Most
recently it was caused by networkmangler writing some gigglebytes of logs.
