First I'd check places like /var/log, or /var/cache/apt/archives, possibly one or the other places are filling up with log or other info. > Is it possible to symlink /bin, /etc/, + others into the /home > partition? or just use a partitioner to resize the /home? Which has the It probably is, but the downside is that you lose the 'separateness' of the home partition (or vice versa, keeping the OS separate from your data). I wouldn't recommend it. Resizing /home won't help, since it's mounted on another partition. What's in /, is everything that *isn't* mounted someplace else (i.e, if /tmp or /home is on another partition, it doesn't count against space used in /', even though it's mounted as part of /.) -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ David E.
