Trey, how about doing this (go to / to get everything, and be root to see
everything):
du -h | grep [0-9]M
this will show you all directories larger than 1 MB (but smaller than 1GB)
or you can issue
du -h | grep [0-9][0-9]M
this will show you all directories larger than 9 MB
and du -h | grep [0-9][0-9][0-9] for larger than 99MB etc.
if you want only directories between 9MB and 99MB do this
du -h | grep [0-9][0-9]M | grep -v [0-9][0-9][0-9]M
Maybe this will help you locate where all your drive space is going?
