[gentoo-user] Ran out of space

2006-06-23 Thread Mick

Agh!  Now I've run out of space.  Just as I was running
pearl-cleaner as well! :-@

There's a lot of stuff in /tmp like:

prw---  1 rootroot  0 Jun  6 21:20 sh-np-3448647298

But I guess it won't help you much... you could also wipe /var/tmp/portage/ especially if you have broken OOo build sitting there :)Still in the long run, assuming you have everything in one root partition, that won't be enough...

I think you can delete everything, when the programs that created
those files restart again, they will recreate the temporary files .

Anything older than your last reboot.

Are /tmp and /var/tmp on the same partition? If so, clean
out /var/tmp/portage, it will have several GB of openoffice files
following your failed emerge.

Normally, you can remove *everything* in /tmp without borking
your system. At worst, a reboot might be required - but even
this shouldn't be necessary.

Thanks for all your replies.  I think I should be emerging OOo-bin
because there's just not enough space in this old laptop (just 2G
available under / after I cleared out the abandoned OOo emerge files).
I have /usr/portage on its own dir, but everything else is under / .
I just can't remember if I ever managed to emerge OOo on this lappy
and used up the disk space therafter, or if I cloned it from another
box . . .
