Using Ubuntu 16.10. The system ran out of space on /root. I found that
/var/log/syslog was 27gb in size. I deleted all the syslog.* files and got the
system sort of working and copied /var/log/syslog to my home directory (/home
is on a different partition than /root). I then deleted the syslog file and
rebooted. Now things are working OK. I would like to find out what caused
this problem but can not look at the syslog file as it is too large. Any ideas
on how to display this file?
