All,
I'm running low on space on root, so I just ran cd /; du -shx *
I was expecting the -x to cause my mount points to be ignored. No such luck and I can see that since I explicitly am including /home etc. I'm going to get results for that.
Anyone know a simple way to say "how big are the subdirectories on my root partition?"
Ah... the problem is the * You're going to have to explicitly list all of the directories that are on the root partition on the command line, WITHOUT listing any mountpoints (/home, /usr, whatever) By using *, you effectively said "stay within ANY AND ALL of the filesystems containing these directories", including any filesystem with a mountpoint in the / directory (i.e. /proc, /dev, /home, ... )
Thanks Greg
