Dear managers, thanks for the overwhelming response again. Most suggested to use cd / du -sk * | sort -n to get a sorted list of directories with the disk usage printed in kBytes. Well, this raises a question. I got the following response. 0 net 0 vol 1 bin 1 createAccounts 1 export 1 fastboot 1 lib 1 log 1 mnt 1 prefs_v3 8 lost+found 9 devices 9 xfn 13 GNUstep 25 CIFS 301 dev 544 tmp 752 nohup.out 1227 BlobService 2739 etc 7901 sbin 20672 core 20726 kernel 27250 platform 44082 Library 83121 Stuff 121388 ApplicationsNew 155857 Applications 255645 var 1988318 usr 2283770 home 5328118 opt 7010699 proc 17671273 snap snap is a mounted dir from an external nfs server, so it does not count. Summing the output makes me think that about 16 GBytes are in use. By the way, what is stored in /proc? I have a 40 GByte hard disk and bash-2.03# df -b Filesystem avail /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 9185298 /proc 0 fd 0 mnttab 0 swap 1421736 swap 1421736 reports that only 9 GBytes are still available. Where are the remaining 15 - 20 GBytes? Any ideas or am I misinterpreting the figures?
