There's 100MB-ish in /lib/modules now in stable, 150MB in the > latest sid kernel. My own root partition has 36GB used (and another 52GB free). Admittedly 34GB of that is under /root/ (mostly backups of something I haven't gotten to processing into more appropriate storage yet), but that still leaves 2GB, 1.6GB of it under /lib/modules/. (That's with 16 installed kernels, dating back to 2011; I don't tend to clean the old ones up manually more than once every few years, and nothing seems to do it automatically.) Admittedly I have ridiculous amounts of local storage space, but even when I install Debian in a VM on a 40GB virtual hard disk, I wouldn't consider allocating less than 4GB for the root partition without *very* strong reason. I don't think my current 2GB of system-consumed space on / is an unreasonable total, all things considered... I boggled briefly at seeing a few hundred megabytes of usage on / considered "huge". - -- The Wanderer Secrecy is the beginning of tyranny.
