[mythtv-users] Root partition on MythTV machine filling up

A couple of guesses: your log files or the mail spool.

Try to track down where the data is all located.
du -sk /* | sort -n

This will tell you the size of each folder, with the largest ones at
the bottom. Ignore anything on a different partition, and then examine
the largest ones further. ex:
du -sk /var/* | sort -n

You should quite easily be able to track down where all the usage is.
