Not very surprising. With just a couple of kernels around, my current usage on / is way over 50 MB. And I keep my /tmp files on an md(4) fs. gothmog# du -kx / | grep -v '/.*/' | grep '[0-9][0-9]\+' 2700 /stand 1628 /etc 6814 /bin 28004 /boot 2946 /root 21118 /sbin 63244 / The largest amount of space is under /boot where exactly 2 kernels are kept now (kernel and kernel.old, just in case an installkernel goes very wrong) but /sbin isn't very small either.
