I tried this and got: hda3, 1.5GB, mounted on / , 100% usage
I'm not sure what's going on here :(
I then tried to delete the /tmp via rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty /tmp
which looked like
it worked (I got the bash prompt on the next line without error). But when
I ls -a the root directory /tmp is still there.
To briefly restate my ultimate goal and initial problem. I am trying to
start kde. When I attempt to login via the graphical login screen. It
looks like kde tries to start but it kicks me back out to the login screen.
I have found an error that indicates /tmp is full.
I gave up on the /tmp issue. And blindly tried running kfm from failsafe
login. Whammo there it is. Then feeling like I can push my luck, I find
"kde" in the directory gui from kfm and wouldn't ya know kde starts right
up. I did get an error message when I tried to run kdm from the console -
can't remember it right now though. This newbie is thoroughly confused!!
I'll keep plugging away at it though.
