[linux-audio-user] ext3 filesystem

Hi, My hda1 partition is becoming %100 used and I don't know why. This began happening after a system lockup where I had to power cycle. I made about 9.7Gig of space available on the drive but after another lockup and power cycle the drive is %100 used again. [studio@stepdaddy studio]$ df -H Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda2 38GB 36GB 118MB 100% / /dev/hda1 104MB 21MB 79MB 21% /boot MOUNT /dev/hda2 on / type ext3 (rw) FSTAB LABEL=/ / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 /dev/hda3 swap swap defaults 0 0 I looked for hints in /var/log/messages but didn't see anything interesting. I didn't see any logs for filesystems. Could it be that ext3 is doing something to cause this? Perhaps the filesystem needs to be checked. At one point, I removed about two gigs of data and 'df -H' reported available space at around 500MB. I'm not sure what that might indicate. I don't know anything about ext3 and how it works or what it does but I guess that's where I'll start my studies. Maybe it's a hardware problem with the HD. I hope it isn't. If anyone has some clues about what I should do or ideas for what might be happening, I could really use the help. ron __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
