I had this Email from the RAQ:

Subject: The filesystem [/] is getting very full

Total disk space: 726.04 MB
Free disk space: 48.75 MB
Percent Used: 93 %

----

Questions:

How can I add disk space to the root filesystem?

Which files are candidates for removal to regain space? I have a RAQ4i with standard setup plus MySQL.

I have plenty of space in the /home directory - can I move anything over from root?

Thanks, can anyone list the commands to make a symbolic link and move files over step by step from a directory under root to a home one?

ie. Make new directories, copy all files (inc subdir), make symbolic link, delete old files.
