Here's my "df" results:

Filesystem           Size      Used     Avail   Use%  Mounted on
/dev/hda6             289M   195M   79M      71%      /

Obviously, the /tmp directory is in the root partition, so I tried to move it using the
"ln -s /home/tmp /tmp" command, then I retried to install Gnome using the "lynx -source
http://go-gnome | sh" command. I still got the same error saying that I do not have
enough free space in the /temp directory. How do I correctly move the /tmp directory 
and
change the link to the /tmp directory?
