Sorry, the file is effectively in /proc and not in /etc....
This is my mistake. I thank Michael Collins for his previous answer:
this is the core file for the OS, and I wont delete it. Anyway, this is
not a matter of disk spcae at all. I was just astonished to see a file
that big without knowing its real content and why it exists.
Thank you again.
