You can of course read "man hier" to obtain information about
the file system hierarchy. In settings where partitions are
used to separate functional parts of the hierarchy, there's
often not much stuff that goes into /, because / is primarily
reserved for the basic system and the mountpoints; things
like /tmp, /var, /usr and /home go to different partitions.
Check the content of /boot. Maybe you have more than one
kernel image and module files in there. You can as well use
# du -sch /
with only / mounted to get a first impression which subtrees
do occupy how much disk space.
