Computer is running Debian Lenny.
I installed it a while ago; not sure when it was.
I chose the automatic partitioning option that makes these separate partitions:
Code:
/ 259M
/dev 10M
/home 907G
/tmp 373M
/usr 4.6G
/var 2.8G
Cool! Except, the kernel libraries are stored in /lib, which is on /, and the
newer kernels have increased in size since then so that THE / PARTITION BECOMES FULL WHEN YOU INSTALL THEM.
The current sizes of the contents of some of the directories under / are:
Code:
/lib 114M
/etc 22M
/bin 3.8M
/boot 42M
/sbin 3.2M
I am not sure what is using the rest of the partition; its currently full.
I have tried `aptitude clean` and `aptitude autoclean` already, which didn't free any disk space.
I want to avoid setting this system up over again from scratch at all costs, because it would require a lot of time. How else can I solve this problem without hosing the system or losing data?
