I knew I read about this somewhere but couldn't recall what the fix was.
 I thought it was on the forums since I do search there before asking
here, most of the time anyway.

What version are you on when this happened?  Also, what version did you
go back to?  I ask because I have not masked any version here.  I may
need to do that since I have all but /boot and / on LVM now.

Also, after my recent move, I see now I should have made / MUCH smaller.
 I mean MUCH MUCH smaller.  :/  There goes that hindsight again.
Naturally it is NOT on LVM.

I'm sort of getting used to being less than 100%.  Actually, less than
50% most days.  ;-)

Yes, I usually make / about 400MB and it is half full.

If you're using in "init thingy" [tm] you may as well put / on an LV too.

Mines bigger than yours:

Filesystem  Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
rootfs   24G  1.3G   21G   6% /

Well, I may later on do just that.  If / was on LVM, I could shrink that
puppy pretty easy.  Look at all that wasted space.  Gr.  I started
to make it 10G but couldn't recall what I had calculated and I couldn't
find where I wrote it down either.

My only gripe, gkrellm can't see the LVM groups and such.  It's sees the
partition but just as one thing to monitor and not separate as they
actually are for the file systems.  Oh well, my Cooler Master HAF-932
case has that nice BRIGHT blue light.  If it is on, it's doing
something.  :/

Oh, been saving money for that nice LARGE drive too.  Maybe in a couple
months I can get me a 2 or 3Tb drive.  Yeppie!!
