You need to list your filesystems with sizes...

/(root)
/var
/usr
/opt
/home
/stand

Most likely these are not under the Filesystem / and should not be imho, but can be on the same disk as /.

I ahve seen it where folks do this:


tar -cvf ... ... > /dev/rmt/0mn or similar to a disk device by accident...



Try this command in /

du -k |sort -rn then go to the dirs under / that are large and narrow down where the large files are located....
