Im having another problem with a large db. I have a 160Gig drive dedicated

have a couple of gig left, but whenever i try and do anything on it, the
disk fills up and I have to run a repair table tablename quick to get it
going and that takes forever since its quite large.
What kind of filesystem is this? I suggest running Linux, and using a
"sensible" filesystem like XFS, possibly
Repairing tables take a long time usually (Falcon is meant to fix this)...
Do you know why the disk is filling up so fast? What MySQL version is
this? And how much *actual* free space do you have?
