Re: Upgrade Problem
Well, I have /var on my / partition, because I started out small. I
symlinked the directory where the .debs go when they download (when
using apt-get) to my /home partition because / didn't have enough space
when I first attempted to install. Anyway, here's my df -h output:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda6 147M 98M 41M 71% /
/dev/sda7 961M 859M 53M 95% /usr
/dev/sda1 2.5G 964M 1.5G 38% /mnt
/dev/sda9 314M 229M 69M 77% /home
As you can see, I'm bursting at the gills in /usr...I may just start
over with a new install because I do have room to play with (I actually
have more disk space that isn't being used for Debian), I just need to
reorganize it in a major way.
Thanks for the help.
Russell
