Try this: # find / -xdev -size +2000 | xargs ls -l This will find all files larger than 1 MB (2000 blocks of 512 byte) on the root file system. The only ones that should be there should be /kernel and /kernel.GENERIC (and possibly other kernels that you have put there). If that doesn't find anything untoward, do: # find / -xdev -type d This lists all the directories in /. You should get something like: / /dev /dev/fd /usr /stand /stand/help /stand/etc /etc /etc/gnats /etc/kerberosIV /etc/mtree /etc/namedb /etc/ppp /etc/uucp /proc /cdrom /dist /bin /lkm /mnt /root /sbin /tmp /tmp/.X11-unix /src /home If there are other directories there, check them out. In particular, of course, /var shouldn't be there. Greg
