I mounted /dev/dasda1 on /mnt so that du wouldn't traverse all of the mounted

Running du -B 4k /mnt/ | sort +0nr | less - reveals this:

31154 /mnt/dev

You have a lot of noise there; I generally do this:
To find how much space used:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ df -h /
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
217G 204G 1.8G 100% /
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$
Okay I have a space problem.
To see the big consumers:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ sudo du -mx --max-depth=2 / | sort -n | tail
1948 /var/www
2791 /root
3347 /var/cache
3510 /usr/share
6338 /usr
32717 /home/summer
34627 /home
156592 /var/lib
164521 /var
208731 /
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$
I like megabytes, I somewhat understand megabytes. "-x" keeps it to one
filesystem. "--max-depth" reduces noise.
The above report suggests checking ~summer (my homedir) and /var/lib (I
hide virtual machines there).
