Reboot completed, you are now in runlevel S
- cd /tmp (yes, even though the /tmp filesystem is not mounted, the directory is still there, because it's needed as a mount point. Let's make sure that there aren't any files in /tmp on the root filesystem that then get hidden (and thus, not available to be removed / recycled because your /tmp filesystem is covering them up!) 6 ls -al /tmp. If anything is listed other than . and .. remove them
Lots of stuff. But I am afraid of removing it, Here is what's there:
Total 24 drwxrwxrwt 6 root root 4096 Oct 24 2009 . drwxr-xr-x 40 root root 4096 Oct 24 2009 .. drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 Oct 24 2009 .ICE-unix drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 Oct 24 2009 .X11-unix drwx-------- 2 root root 4096 Oct 24 2009 kde-root drwx-------- 3 root root 4096 Oct 24 2009 ksocket-root
Now !! Here is something strange ! After I finished this reply to you, I re-booted to make sure what I had written was correct. The last two line of the above were difffferent. They changed to this:
All of that is created as needed.
OK Please be patient
That's why I gave the instructions which I wrote above.
OK, I went and followed your instructions after Carlos chided me for not doing that.
rm -rf /tmp/.* /tmp/*
Or, even more simply: rm -rf /tmp ; mkdir /tmp; chmod 1777 /tmp
Everything cleaned out and made new and continued with an fsck on all of the partitions. Rebooted and still have the / 10GB partition filled to 99% capacity. Now if you want to continue with me on my little saga, see my reply to Mike.
