What is in the space?

2012-06-24 Thread eekley
Hi folks. So migration assistant from a G4 to G5. The whole HD of the G4 was 
too big so I left out everything I could but it still is taking up almost the 
whole 120GB of the G5 HD. There are no movies, music, pictures, documents. Is 
there a way to check for stuff I do not need? Thanks to everyone.

Peace,
   Anand

Do a Get Info on the various folders at the root level of the drive  
(120GB is a very small drive for a G5). From there you can see what  
the major players are and delete as you see fit.

Disk Inventory X is a freeware app that gives a GUI of relative sizes  
of individual files  folders. Really easy to look and see what's  
big and expendable.
