Re: [Cooker] /dev/hda1 at 99% full

Did you look inside the files in /var/log? Most likely it is the same 
message all the time and gives you a hint what is going wrong.
A quick fix for you should be to uninstall apache, maybe replace it with
boa if you need a web server.

The file /proc/kcore has to be that big, it is your physical RAM and
does not take any space on the hard drive.

 One huge file is /proc/kcore at 128 MB.  I don't have permission to delete 
 it, and can't change the permissions on this file.
 
 I stopped psacct from starting at bootup because /var/log/pacct got up to 53 
 MB.  I deleted that file.  
 
 Two other files tend to become monsters:
 /var/log/httpd/error.log as much as 173.3 MB
 /var/log/httpd/ssl-engine.log as much as 169.2 MB
 
 I've deleted these files a couple of times, but they keep coming back.  
 Nothing like that ever happened in months of running Mandrake 7.2.  Have 
 other people observed this behavior?

That's your kernel core. YOu can't do that.

You should check out error.log and ssl-engine.log to see what errors they are
and then do the appropriate things to fix it.
