Well... back to the issue at hand. :0)
What do you get from this command?
[timh@r2d2 timh]$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hde5 13G 1.8G 10G 15% /
/dev/hdf6 9.8G 794M 8.6G 8% /backup
/dev/hdf5 9.8G 438M 8.9G 5% /home
/dev/hde7 4.9G 34M 4.7G 1% /root
/dev/hdf7 7.8G 213M 7.2G 3% /software
It will tell you how big your partitions are, as well as how much space
is left.
Is your /home actually 15GB or something else? Using that command will
tell you that.
Another thing I would suggest would be tar the files up, then copy the
tar to the machine, and then untar it. You could run the command
yourself, or write a simple script to create the tar of the /home, copy
it to another machine using something like scp, then untaring it. That
would be your choice.
