RE: [cobalt-users] Strange error message - Please advise

Hi all,

I scrolled through my inbox and on 21.07.02, Steve shared, amongst other
links, this one for sorting out this "/ full" problem (which I also have
:) )

<<

script
http://www.firstwebspace.com/raq/usr2home.sh

This frees up the root partition on a RAQ3/4 by moving /usr/local to
/home/local and symlinking /usr/local so all works ok. download the
script and chmod 755 and run it "./usr2home.sh" and follow the on screen
prompts.

This IS not a strange error message, 
it is one most RaQ owners are aware of ;-)

The RaQs have very small '/' and '/var' partitions.
I build the restore CDs to make these partitions 2GB and 1GB
respectively. So I don't have that trouble.

Steve Bassi has a script that will move /usr/local to /home/local. You
might try running that script, though you will have to find it. Unless
Steve speaks up ;)

Be careful running it, be absolutely sure to follow the instructions the

script prints out.
