Hi Folks, I came across some rather peculiar happening with Woody on my 8500 (it's a stock system, except for a 2.4.20 kernel). When I run a df as root on the system, I get:
kaiso:/# df -k Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sda7 495844 455382 14862 97% / /dev/sda8 1032088 741300 238360 76% /usr /dev/sda9 1519116 1056316 385632 74% /misc_space /dev/sdb 4392296 1487760 2681412 36% /home The root partition is the things worrying me. When I check all of the sub-directories within root though: kaiso:/# du -xsm / 76 / I only get about 76 MB of files. When I do this in / , however: kaiso:/# du -s . 4052342 . The only thing I can think of is my journal file has become rather large. Is that the case, and if so - is there a way to reset the journal on my filesystems, so I can choose more manageable sizes ?? I tried running tune2fs -J size=64, but I was told there was already a journal on the partition. If I'm wrong about the journal becoming too large, what else could this be ? cheers, vinai P.S. The above e-mail address is bogus. To get the correct one, replace the "4" with "for"
