Then I did a find in the finder, and looked for everything over 20 mb. I found a few files I didn't need, which freed up 8 gb. Then I noticed a "console log 0" that was 48 GB. Well, I had found half the problem. I did a find for everything over 200 mb, with visible and invisible items showing, and found that there was an invisible "System log 0" that was 48 GB as well. I deleted both these files and restarted. Boom, hard drive space back to normal, with a little bit more from the 8 gb I had reclaimed earlier.


SO WHAT HAPPENED? Was [EMAIL PROTECTED] the problem? Is this likely to continue to happen? This is a really scary thing to see after just upgrading!

If you had looked at one of the logs, it would have shown you the entries and that would have told you what had filled them up.
