[ale] / is 100%, how2 reduce ?

[Robert L. Harris]

Unless you've installed alot of stuff on the system, 20Gig should have a
good bit free.  It's probably logs or temp space...

Do 2 things.

apt-get clean

See how much you have free then cd to / and execute "du -sh *" and 
email it.  it will take a while to run.
