I have a box running redhat 7.1 used primarily as a small samba / web server. The box has a large 60GB HDD, 58GB formatted as fat32 with the other 2GB formatted as a linux partion (and the swap space) I seem to have run out of space on the linux partition in the past couple of days and can't seem to figure out why - everything is stored on the fat32 partition and I've not copied anything large (ie 500MB or so) onto the linux partition. Somehow I seem to have 'lost' between 400 and 500MB in a couple of days. Anybody have any ideas?

LOL. The answer is that you did NOT allocate enough disk space to root partiton You really need 3 partitions or maybe 4, /, /home, swap, maybe /boot (very beginning of drive). It is best to keep the data partitions separate from your / partition. At least this is my first thought. see what is taking up the space. Charles

Hello Rich, Charles is right, 2 Gig is much too small for RH. Go to 6 Gig. I had a similar problem with RH6.0 on a 2 gig H/D. It, too, filled up but mainly with log messages since many processes that should have run did not do so corectly. Look at your log messages to check, which I think are in /var/log/messages??
