My gut reaction is: what's taking up so much room? My /tmp contains 6 mbytes. Even back when it was sharing space on a 500 mbyte /, it only filled up on the rare occasions when something went Horribly Wrong(tm) with a large compilation or backup. To the OP: See what you can delete. Then figure out what's filling it up. Respoectfully, Robert Huff
