Another interesting exercise in correcting my own errors,
for sure.
1. unmount the drive.
2. Delete the directory with the junk inside
3. create new directory of the same name.
4. mount the drive.
It worked that way because I didn't know that I needed
the directory to mount the partition. (perennial newbie)
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda1 1.6G 422M 1.1G 28% /
/dev/hdb7 55G 26G 29G 48% /Other
/dev/hdb6 30G 9.0G 21G 31% /home
/dev/hdc1 140G 368K 140G 1% /music
none 379M 24K 379M 1% /tmp
/dev/hdb5 20G 3.1G 17G 16% /usr
/dev/hdb1 49G 201M 49G 1% /var
//BLACK.AEIS.TV/lee 145G 38G 107G
27% /home/lee/smb4k/BLACK.AEIS.TV/lee
/dev/hdc5 140G 93G 47G 67% /musicback
28% just feels better, somehow.
Thanks, all

Lee,
Perennial newbie? Does that mean that you re-learn all your Linux stuff
each year?
Just for future reference, when a folder is used as the location for a
mounted partition, it's often referred to as a 'mount point'. The only
reason they call it that, is so that Guru's and UberGeeks can sound like
they're very technically proficient and charge their customers accordingly.
Then again, it sounds better than 'that mount thingy', don't it?
Glad to see you got space again Lee.
