Hi.
I'm having some problems regarding the disk utilization on my EEE 1000H and my 901 with Ubuntu 8.10.

So the problem is:
The /dev/sda1 is running out of space fast. The problem in on both models.
I have tried to compress the /usr and that worked briefly. On the EEE 1000H i extended the partition storing the rootfs from 6 Gigs to 12 Gigs. The result was that the partition still god swamped with data. The second issue with the 1000H is that the df command is only showing the /dev/sda1 as 1,7 Gigs instead of the 11 Gigs i assigned the partition.

/dev/sda1 1,7G 1,6G 63M 97% /
tmpfs 500M 0 500M 0% /lib/init/rw
varrun 500M 104K 500M 1% /var/run
varlock 500M 0 500M 0% /var/lock
udev 500M 2,7M 498M 1% /dev
tmpfs 500M 116K 500M 1% /dev/shm
/dev/sda3 135G 128M 128G 1% /home
/dev/loop0 1,7G 1,6G 63M 97% /usr
unionfs 1,7G 1,6G 63M 97% /usr

an fdisk on dev/sda shows the following;
/dev/sda1 * 1 1479 11880036 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 1480 1609 1044225 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda3 1610 19457 143364060 83 Linux

and an fdisk on the partition in question /dev/sda1 just to verify the partition size:
Disk /dev/sda1: 12.1 Gb, 12165156864 byte
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1478 cylinders
Units = cylindre of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x32ccad84

The problem is identical on my 901.

Just after i compressed the /usr dir. the partitionsize was correct, but after a few reboots of the system the error occured .

any idears on how to fix it?

Thanks
