Since tinydns doesn't appear to be a debian package, you got bitten by allowing a non-debian-package to use anything other than /home/, /usr/local/, /var/local/, and /etc/. > > > > > If you're using LVM, do you have any free space? > [...] > $ df -h > Filesystem Dimens.

If you want to give yourself some more room in /, you could put /tmp on tmpfs as long as you have enough swap already. Then you could delete the LV tmp and reallocate its space to /. Also, your /boot is too big but that's more difficult to change; not impossible. > # pvdisplay > --- Physical volume --- > PV Name /dev/hda6 > VG Name Debian > Free PE 0 > I kept the second disk for media -- photographs mainly --, but it looks > as though I shall have to take a part of it in order to decant some > other directory into it. > If you don't need to access that media drive from other OSs, you can incorporate it into the main LVM system. Assuming that those photographs are meant to be viewed by multiple users, you could put the directory under home. However, I don't see that your setup needs any tweaking right now. / is at 68% with 81 MB free. The only thing that should take up a lot of additional room there would be kernel modules for another kernel. I'm guessing that you have two kernels installed; before you install another, remove the oldest one. Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
