Why do you have this problem? On my Debian system I have almost 3GB of stuff installed and my root is only 161 MB ... I've split off /usr and /var as you have but I still have /boot as part of /. Check what's hogging your space ... I just checked a rh7.3 system that I have access to and it's only using 216 MB for / despite tonnes of software being installed (3.8 GB /usr). One culprit might be extra kernels that are installed. /lib/modules can get pretty huge with a few 2.4 kernels installed. Recent Debian kernels have a /lib/modules/2.4.x/ directory of around 25 MB each. Another problem might be /tmp or /root If there really is a legitimage reason for all that space being used then I'd just pop in another disk and copy the root partition over to it. -- Fraser Campbell <fraser-Txk5XLRqZ6CsTnJN9+BGXg at public.gmane.org> http://www.wehave.net/ Halton Hills, Ontario, Canada Debian GNU/Linux -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.
