disk usage

[Jim Tarvid]

root at venus:~# du -bs /* | sort -nr | less

You can ignore /proc and /dev.

My top 2 are:
43667994365     /home
30759426971     /partimag

I had forgotten about partimag. I can move the contents to an external hard
drive if I want to keep them.  As expected /home it the real culprit and
between the two users, I am the culprit and among my directories - Videos is
the largest by far and among those, my globaloneness shorts take up 25 GB. I
have these backed up in at least two places so when I get into trouble, I
know where to look.
