Whoops !! It isn't the trash. Just found out that my / directory is 98.4% full again. Looked at everything. Can't figure out what it is or what is causing that. Did a YOU kernel upgrade two days ago. What is filling up 1.5 gigs of my / directory??

Try using du -sk * starting at / to see what is using all the space.
Jeffrey, Carlos, Ken, Thanks for replying. I did the disk usage command and the following is the result. That partition is 2 gigs. I don' see amything that jumps out at me. Maybe I am not seeing/doing it correctly.

EasyStreet:/ # I didn't show /home, usr, opt, var as they are all on their own partitions. More ideas, guidance, please ? KDiskFree shows the / partition as being 98.6 % used Carlos, checked in mc also. Nothing obvious. I do have several old kernels laying around. Is it safe to remove anything and everything associated with an old kernel?
