If you have enough room on the /var-partition, you could simply delete
(or comment) the line containing " /dev/hda7 /var/log " from /etc/fstab
and reboot. This will make your system start using your directory
/var/log on the hda3-partition instead of mounting this directory on
another partition. If

Please send fdisk -l /dev/hda. Judging by your /etc/fstab, you can't do

other place (for examlpe /var) by using the command
ln -s /var /var/log. But I guess you would have to go to ru
cd /var
cp -r log log.bak # or cp -r log /home/log.bak is /var is too small
umount log
rmdir log
mv log.bak log
If the partition that used to be mounted under /var/log is just after
/var, then you can extend /var:
* with fdisk:
-# delete /var/log
-# write down where /var begins (pr
