Ok. Did this today on a 7.5 GB Ubuntu partition as system had complained once a few days ago about low space:
Checked space occupied by / : 6650 MB, incl /home which doesn't contain much data other than dot files and about 20MB of other user files. /var cache is empty. Reinstalled ubuntu completely: 2371 MB, just default install without dot files or user files, no updates, no extra apps. Reinstalled all extra apps that were there before reformatting: 3112 MB, /var cache not cleared (about 150 MB files there), no updates installed. No changes made except /var cache cleared: 3113 MB. So if the system is back to what it was before being reformatted, where was all the extra space of almost 3.5 GB being used or utilised. Any ideas. -- Regards Narendra Diwate
