Re: [LI] Disk Space
Hi
The /proc directory in your Linux does not take any Hard DisK
space. It just represents the system processes and the resources
on your Linux.
The "kcore" file in the /proc directory represents the
RAM on your system.
So you should not delete any file in /proc directory.
(May be, you cannot. Iam not sure)

Subject: [LI] Disk Space.
Hello Everybody,
I have a 486 DX2 with 540MB HDD. Linux resides in a 200MB partition. I
am running out of disk space in my Linux partition. While going through
the different directories in order to delete unwanted files, I found a
file called "kcore" in the "/proc" directory. It is nearly 33 MB in
size. Can I delete the file?. Please suggest. Eagerly waiting for your
reply.
regards
muthu
