Gulp, blushing, digging toe into dirt. Oops! Returning to very shaky system
to find something else monsterous. Sorry 'bout that, folks.

Somehow I've done some not-so-wonderous things to my RH9 installation:
I have a Monsterous (348Mb) /proc/kcore file which I cannot remove or
edit down. It is preventing me from using the system as it has filled
the / partition to full. I can't change permissions (even as root),
rm it, or vi it. Two questions - what can I do to get rid of it? and,
- any idea what is the underlying cause of this file's creation and
expansion? Any help will be appreciated.

Be prepared to look embarrassed..
The kcore file is merely a map of memory and doesn't exist. In fact, all
of the 'files' in /proc don't really exist but are created by the kernel
to hold information about the system (only while the system is up and
running).
So /proc/kcore is not your problem. Something else is.
