One more way you can solve the problem you are having with by freeing the hdd space. This case solve your problem a lil-bit then the harder way " Buying a new HDD "
This command will print the number of blocks used by each directory and file in the root. Most likely, the largest number printed is where you should be looking. You can then cd to that directory, and examine it. If it has sub-directories, you might use:
find . -type d -exec du -s {} \;
You can search for "large" files by cd'ing to a suspect directory ( or even starting at /, if you must), and typing
find . -size +5000 -print
will print the names of all files over 5,000 blocks (2,560,000) bytes. This may find many, many files, so you might want to refine it with larger numbers. You might also want to sort it:
find / -size +2000 -exec ls -s{} \; | sort -nr | more
Check the largest and dummy files or directories that you confirmed not using it and remove. Might save your time and your Expenses a bit.

It seems that when we expand a filesystem the inodes don't get tuned... (5 Replies)
