Re: partition memory

["Geoff Brimhall" <gbrimhall@Rational.Com>]

For disk partition stuff, use 'df'

To know the size of a directory, use 'du -s /path/to/directory'

To know memory stuff, there is a command line command (which I don't know), but I have found it the easiest to look at, with a shell text editor such as pico or joe, /proc/memory.

Actually, a *lot* of cool stuff can be gleamed about your system through looking at what is *immediatley* in the /proc directory. The subdirectories to the /proc are individual process that you probably don't need to go looking in.

available, used and free memory on the current partition ?

Thanks,
