My Hard Drive is Filling Up Fast!
by auntiebrownie from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4ZJ93)
Just installed Slackware 14.2 on x86_64 Intel(R) Pentium(R) Gold G5400 CPU @ 3.70GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux.
Installed several times because hard drive keeps filling up fast. Wondered if it was inodes problem or what? Just playing Patience and browsing here, about an hour since new installation, and look at this usage, that started with 5% and now it's 15% and in a day or 2 that'll be 100%:
