Is there a way to increase the disk space that the Operating System and
Programs are allowed?

Thanks,

cli to your box

mkdir /home/usr
cd /usr
tar -c * | tar -C /home/usr -xf -
# Go do something for a 10-20 minutes or so
mv /usr /us
ln -s /home/usr /usr
rm -R -f /us

This script just moves your /usr directory over to your /home
directory.  It gives you a lot more space.  Since the files should
primarily owned by "root" you wont run into a quota problem.

The second option is to create your own restore CD, change the
partition size, and restore your box.
