8/19 My root partition is pretty filled up, what are some quick and
dirty ways to remedy this? I don't know which /var/log files are
safe to delete, though I'd like to delete unnecessary packages
like X, etc. How to go about that, safely?
\_ rm -rf /
\_ Assuming /tmp is in your / partition and not its own mount point,
almost anything in /tmp should be safe to delete if you're in
single-user mode. In /var/log: if you're not going to be reading
them, any files with .0-9 at the end (e.g. messages.9 or
messages.9.gz) are safe to delete. |
