Hi Everybody, What's happen if I remove the /var/adm/YaST and its subdirectorys? My filesystem /var is almost full and I need to free space. ===== ================================ 0x005f Linux System Administrator ================================ The tux works and don't doubt this ================================ _______________________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

The disk usage of that directory is very small. Might be a bad idea to do

Have a look how much space /var/tmp uses. -- Mads Martin Joergensen, http://mmj.dk "Why make things difficult, when it is possible to make them cryptic and totally illogical, with just a little bit more effort?" -- A. P. J.

Is that directory too big on your system? My "/var/adm/YaST" is just a bit less than 12 Mb. Another one that can grow a bit is /var/lib, because the update patches go there. My "/var/lib/YaST2/you/i386/update/8.1/rpm" has 103 Mb. Also "/var/log" grows continuously, but not much: unless there is an error somewhere, and your logs are growing excedingly (esp. the kernel log). If that is so, you can adjust logrotate to take care of that. One that is bigger than I thought is "/var/spool/cups/", it seems to be keeping some jobs in the tmp dir. To see what dirs are big, I like to use mc (midnight comander): there is a "show directory sIzes" under the "Command" menu. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
