Do an
apt-get clean
to delete downloaded and finished-with .debs
Then start looking for large files.
You could also:
du -k
to find directories that use lots

du has always been helpful for me in locating large files.
Try under /:
# du -cksh *
Then go exploring from there.

No large files with find.
Unable to unmount partitions to check under their mount points.
Once shut down unable to reboot,
Live cd showed that my rsync script had copied files to the mount point
and then mounted a filesystem on top.

Hi,
I have recently installed AUC on one of our old servers and am now a
victim of my own success.
I have found this morning that the disk is full and no one can use the
email on the system (for obvious reasons!). I have connected to the server
(SuSE 7.0) using samba from my W2K machine.
Do:
df -i
to see if you have run out of inodes.
You might have a runaway process. Do:
ps ax
and look for something that is using a lot of CPU time.
I have found that logrotate sometimes runs away when using compression.

I was able to use tune2fs to get my system going again, and have spent the
best part of today deleting unwanted packages (mozilla, netscape,
StarOffice etc.) I would like to unistall KDE as well, (this system is
