So I am installing SuSE 10.1 on my Thinkpad.  When I get to "Patch
Download and Installation" and start to choose which patches to
install, pretty soon I get a big red warning: "Working Diskspace is
running out" and a nice bar graph that shows the root file system / to
be overflowed by requested patch files.  So I back off on the last
patch I selected, and tell it to go ahead, and also remove downloaded
packages after update.

I really would like to know _where_ these patch files are stored while
they are downloaded.  My root file system is only 1GB, but all the
places where I can imagine files being stashed are other mounted file
systems with plenty of free space, according to the same bar graph.
If I go peeking in another terminal window (ctrl-alt-F2) I find that I
have:

/home 4GB, 3.7GB avail
/tmp 1GB, 931M avail
/usr 8GB, 5.0GB avail
/var 1GB, 813M avail
/data 8GB, 4.7GB available

/var/lib/YaST2/you
