try an du -sh /*
This will give a summary of space used in each of the directories under /
I have seen a couple of things uses a bunch of disk space:
~/.netscape/cache I hecver have figured out how to tell netscape to limit
the usage. I know ther is a setting in preferences, but it does not seem to
have any effect
/tmp mc will occasionally leave MONSTER files here especially if I ise it to
drillinto a large tar/cpio archive or install an rpm from a remote machine
ising the cd /#ftp:machinename command to view a remote filesystem.
core files can chew up a fair amount of space too. find / -name core will
find them
I ususally run something like find / -size +10000k to find big files and see
if I need them
