Thanks in advance ... I'm at a loss on this one
Running RHL 6.2 on an Intel 486 with 32MB RAM and plenty of disk space.
Trying to install tetex-1.0.6-11.i386.rpm, I get the message:
"installing package tetex-1.0.6-11 needs 2Mb on the / filesystem"
and the install fails.
Running df shows:
1k blocks Used Available Use% Mounted
/dev/sdb1 495828 440428 29801 94% /
/dev/sdb2 14871 2881 11222 20% /boot
/dev/sda2 428408 13 406277 0% /build
/dev/sdb4 459120 77797 357618 18% /home
/dev/cdrom 656134 656134 0 100% /mnt/cdrom
/ and /boot and /build and /home are all ext2 filesystems. /mnt/cdrom
is iso9660. /build is on /dev/sda2, and an old version of MSW is on
/dev/sda1. Everything else is on /dev/sdb.
/dev/sda2 is mounted on /build. /build is empty because I removed an
old ATT version of UNIX that ran there. I can use /build for whatever
I want .....
/usr/local is a link to /home/local. I did that to get more space in
the root filesystem.
I don't understand the 100% for /mnt/cdrom.
I *think* that I have 29Mb available on /. Is that wrong?
Could I make the space on /dev/sda2 available to /? Would mounting
/dev/sda2 on / do that?
Thanks again,
