Tonight, in a desperate bid to free up some space on my hard drive, I went=
=20
ahead and created a new directory on my huge unused /u2 partition called=20
bin.  Then I copied everything from /bin to /u2/bin.  Then I deleted /bin=20
and created a symbolic link from /bin -> /u2/bin.

Then I rebooted.

Shit.

This probably won't be too hard to recover from.  But if anyone else has=20
any advice on how to free up hard drive space that doesn't involve tricks=20
that will make my computer forget how to start up, I'm all ears... or=20
eyes... or something.  Right now, doing df -h reveals that / is at 100%=20
capacity.



Sliante,
