We have hard disk smaller than 40GB. Andi said he sent money for us
to buy a 160GB (explicitely for Savannah). 

I think we can safely replace the hdc of 30GB hard disk with a 160GB
hard disk. That would help for a while.

Did you already receive the money from Andi? Is there any problem with
that option?


If we run out of time, we will follow your suggestion but it may
generate several problems. Because, for instance, the usage of
/audio-video is currently completely correlated to the usage of
/cvsroot. 
Several month ago, /usr was almost empty, /var also, so I had to (I
sent mails about it without any answers) move data to /audio-video,
adding symlinks (documented in /root/ChangeLog) to avoid glitch. I
had to move the cvsroot backups (a tarball per project updated daily,
if there's any change in the cvs). As consequence, the more data we
have in /cvsroot, the more data we'll have in /audio-video. Unless we
move the backups in the /cvsroot itself.

In any case it will result in a strange setup. So the new hard disk
would be a lot easier to manage.
