Hi I think, in your case, the inodes is full. ----- Original Message ----- From: "HAOYANG LIU" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, December 16, 2002 3:01 PM Subject: no space left on device, while it's not true!
After the meal, I saw an error message on my Redhat 7.3 desktop "no space left on device". I tried to ignore it but it kept appearing so I rebooted my computer. while it's being rebooted, I saw touch: careating '/var/lock/subsys/xinetd' No space left on device [Fail] touch: careating '/var/lock/subsys/lpd' No space left on device [Fail] and so on. Then I noticed startx wouldn't run as it used to be and I had to log on via the text screen. Surpringly, I found I couldn't create new fils under "/", nor the /var directory and the error message was always no space left. However, I still could create files under my own direcotry at /home. I used df to check the diskspace and saw only 40% of "/" was used! I have a lot of things to do and I do need my linux come back... What shall I do now? Help, please!
