Well, if you're dealing with non-empty files, :-), I tend to do the following to find large files: find / -mount -type f -size +10000 -ls This looks for files larger than 5MB in size (512-byte blocks per file). You can modify the '-size' argument to find larger files (reduces the amount of output) or smaller files (does the opposite). Cheers, Mark.
