Dear Mr. Friendly Newbie-Helper,
    I keep getting a message that my "/" volume aka /dev/wd0s2a is full. As a matter of fact, it is at an amazing 109% of capacity. My swap volume always shows 200 MB of free space, and the other volumes (/usr /var ...) also have plenty of empty space. What and, more importantly, where should I look to find the things which are filling it? I have looked through the /temp directory, and there isn't that much there. I started getting the messages after compiling a lot of programs is there an output directory or something?

Thanks for your help -- again.
Kirk Noonan
