Even /opt has 2.8GB. Or /var at over 4GB       (what the ... gonna have to look into that). I'm not sure how much space       is used compiling OOo (of course, binary-only is an option here, but I do       find I can notice a reasonable difference in responsiveness when I compile       it myself), for example. That doesn't leave much room for the core inside       15GB.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
