Hello SuSE people
Going to have a problem soon. My /usr partition is 94% full. (didn't realize that /usr/lib_64 was over 300 megs alone) When I originally setup my system I created several large partitions, some of which have lots of space.
My question is can I take some of the large folders out of /usr and put them on another partition? If that is possible I guess I would have to hard link them to the original /usr folder?
Maybe better yet is I have a larger partition that I use for data that I could clean out and swap my /usr partition for that one ?
I remember a thread about something like that and Carlos R. wrote a how-to about it but I never saw it. Checked the archives but could not find it.
Your opinions guys ?
I don't *think* anyone else has said this so far, but will /usr in fact grow much? Don't really see that it should unless you add a lot of things to /usr/local ... I'd expect to see more growth in /home, /var or maybe /srv if you're serving things - are we sure you won't just get away with your 94% well into the future. Put me right if I'm talking nonsense, Best Fergus
