Without access to my fstab file, how does it know where my
file systems are mounted in order to give me the information I need?
My /usr file system was getting dangerously full, so I split off
/usr/lib. If I start installing more kernel packages, I'll probably
split off /usr/src. I could well have further subdivided /usr/X11R6
out (as I have on machines at work in the past).
How can one use the du files easily to tell me when a
partition is getting dangerously full? Or is du just a warm fuzzy
feeling thing?
