  As a stopgap, you might read up on logrotate.  The default
configuration will differ slightly from distro to distro.  Also remember
that logrotate is a cron job, so you might need to have cron run it more
often.  If you have access to Partition Magic, it'll most likely fix the
FAT32 partition.  I haven't thried the newer Linux dosfstools, but
they're probably worth a look.
