du -sk|sort -n will report least used to most used. Ignore filesystems on other partitions and you are on your way to solving the problem. When you find which directory is the culprit cd to it and run the command again and again cd to the most used directory again until you find the problem.
Considering that one of the partitions has 250 GB, that will take a long time. Better use a command that will not consider any other partition.
Like du -x, perhaps.

I tried using that on my system and the du command seemed to ignore the -x. Perhaps du -x |sort -n|tail -10 would work better? -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
