OpenSUSE Install :: How To Increase The Root Partition Size

Aug 24, 2010

I would like to increase the size of my root partition on OpenSuse 11.3. Currently, I have 11.3 installed on a dual boot laptop with Windows 7. My partitions look as follows:-

Code:

ash@linux-up5o:~> df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda8 5.7G 3.8G 1.7G 70% /
devtmpfs 1.4G 260K 1.4G 1% /dev

[code]....

As can be observed above, I have used almost 70% of the available partition space with only 1.7 GB remaining. I have plans to install Microsoft Office 2007 on Wine and I know that 1.7 GB is not enough for the installation. I don't mind reducing the size of my Windows partitions in order to increase the size of the root.

OpenSUSE Install :: Default Root Partition Size For 11.2 - Too Large?

Jan 28, 2010

When I installed opensuse 11.2 64-bit (KDE) the installer set the root partition to 20GB by default. That seemed unnecessarily large, so I reduced it to 16GB. I then completed the install (basically a default KDE install minus games & educational stuff) and still had more than 8GB free. I'm aware that these days hard drive storage space is quite cheap, but it's not so cheap for me as I have an SSD. Would it not be reasonable to reduce the default root partition size to 12GB, or perhaps vary it according to the software package load selected?

Ubuntu Installation :: 10.10 Upgrade /root Size And Booting Options?

Oct 23, 2010

I did search for this but could not easily find the answer I wanted. When I use update manager in 10.04 to upgrade to 10.10 I get an error that there is not enough free disk space. It seems the upgrade uses 19.9M and I only have 16M free from the 100M on my /boot. I am not sure if it is related but I have dual boot. And when rebooting, I have a lot more than just boot into windows or boot into ubuntu. The list shows something live five different linux boot options (ten if you count the recovery modes). It seems that there are five different 2.6.32 - xx - generic options. Are these taking up space and how do I remove the unneeded ones?If I should repartition /boot how big should I make it so this does not occur the next time? Here is the output from df -h

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda7 9.7G 3.2G 6.0G 35% /
none 1002M 312K 1002M 1% /dev

OpenSUSE Install :: Quick Query About Default Root Partition Size?

Sep 14, 2011

I'm dual booting with Win Xp at the moment and have been google-ing and tinkering about with my distro and i'm learning new stuff everyday but I have a question about something that's been bothering me. I think i've figured out that the / partition is similar to the C: Drive in windows which contains program files n stuff am i right? and the home partition which contains users and their files is an offshoot of the root?

So if this is the case, i was in the expert partitioner in YAST to see how the the drive was partitioned and was wondering if the / partition was too big and if i could decrease the size and add it to the /home?. My sys specs are 512mb RAM Dell Dimension 3000 with an 80GB HDD 2.8Ghz Intel Celeron. I also have a 80Gb and 160Gb External laptop drives mainly for my movies n music n stuff. Also is the Swap partition a good size for the spec of computer i have?

Here's the HDD Breakdown:

/dev/sda 74.51GB
/dev/sda1 29.52 GB NTFS /windows/c
/dev/sda2 44.99GB Extended

Server :: Fedora Sending Mails From Root With Non-root Account?

Jul 14, 2011

I've started to get emails that would typically come from [URL] as [URL]. These emails come from services that send out emails (backup programs) directly, or from cronjobs. I've logged in as the non-root account and either sudo su - or su - to root and the restart the service at one point or another. If I login directly as root and bounce the service or cron the emails come across as from root. I don't see anything in my environment variables after I su to indicate what would cause this. I'm not sure where else to look? A pam setting? This seems to have happened between Fedora 10 and 14 (did a bunch of overdue upgrades recently) I've only got Fedora so I don't have anything to compare to. In Fedora 10 I did not have this problem.

Server :: Windows 7 To Linux Server Print Job Size Very Large

Jan 21, 2011

I'm new to setting up Linux Servers. I've setup a Ubuntu 10.10 Server along with CUPS and I'm using Webmin to talk to the server. I have a HP PSC 1315 Multifunction printer connected via usb to the server. Using the CUPS web interface I am able to get the server to detect the connected printer and it identified the HP PSC 1310 Series drivers.

When I printer a test page from the server's screen the print job goes through ok and the size was about 5k.

I then setup a samba share to allow my Windows 7 machine to share the printer. Windows 7 is able to pick up the shared printer correctly and I used the default HP 1310 Series drivers. When I tried to send a test page to the printer, that single page ended up being 3887kb and I also tried printing out a single paged word document which ended up being over 7MB.

Slackware :: Size Of Root "/" Directory

Apr 5, 2010

what is the ideal size of "/" (root) directory? Some people suggested to configure it between 2G - 5G depending on the installation. However, with full slackware installation, with 6G "/" size, it left me only around 400mb space left.

Is this common, or I did something wrong the installation? With only around 400mb space left, isn't this too small?

Hardware :: Partition Size Detected By Testdisk Bigger Than Disk Size

Mar 17, 2011

a client brought in an 160GB external HDD and wanted to get the files off it, there appeared to be no partitions on the disk but i thought it may have been formatted to use the whole disk. I tried to mount it as the various FS types the client thought it may have been to no avail.

I ran testdisk on it which told me that it previously had a mac partition table and a 210GB partition on it (which is larger than the disk) could anyone enlighten me as to whether or not this is even possible, and if so how could i retrieve the data?

Server :: Limit Print Job Size From Samba?

Mar 15, 2010

Does anyone know of a way of limiting a print-job size from samba?

I know how to limit a print job size form cups, and how to require x amount of free space before accepting a job. I've even dug up how to require x amount of free space for samba to accept a print job, but I can't see how to limit samba to only certain sized jobs.

Someone tried to print a >1G file to my print-server this morning, causing me to have a less relaxed Monday than I had hoped. Because it ran out of space before spooling, it was never limited by cups. Because I had to get rid of it ASAP so people could get work done, I have no idea who's it was, or where it came from. Scouring logs didn't give me any good leads either.

Server :: Postfix Message Size Limit?

Sep 1, 2010

I have been trying to increase the message_size_limit on my Debian 2.4.26 box with postfix 2.3.8. For example, I set message_size_limit and mailbox_size_limit to 104857600 (100m) and restart postfix. Running postconf -n confirms that it has changed. However when I send a test message it kicks it back saying the message size limit is 16777216 (16m, which is, incidentally, the default value of the berkeley_db_create_buffer_size parameter)

Software :: Xsane Reduces Size Of Image Of Scanned Page - How To Get Back To Full Size?

Nov 12, 2010

Ubuntu 10.04, xsane 0.996, Brother MFC 240c scanner.I just finished writing a long dissertation on my problem with this scanning environment (which I will spare you). In a nutshell the resulting image, when printed, is smaller than the original document. In writing my dissertation for this post I determined that the cause of the issue is that xsane believes I am scanning an 8.5 x 14 inch document when I am in fact scanning an 8.5 x 11 letter. So the question is... can I change the size to 8.5 x 11? and if so, how? I have not found anything in the xsane Preferences.
