Take a look in the tmp directories on the root partition and see if
there are any large files hanging around.  /var/tmp /tmp are two of
the directories you want to watch closely.  Also, take a look at
/etc/analog.dns, this file can grow very large.  It is save to delete
it, it cause analog to do a little more work next time it runs, but
it will save disk space.
