My heart sank this afternoon when I realized I was out of disk space.
:(  After seeing Wine at the NCLUG installfest, I just had to have it,
so I installed it (the FAQ's said I only needed 125 MB, it took 220...
or more it ran out of space at 220), and funny little things started to
happen.  I then noticed a device out of space message and realized my
root partition is full.  This really amazed me, because nothing overly
bad happened.  I've had the problem under windows and all hell breaks
loose because it can't write to the swap file.

Anyway, since I still have to boot to windows every once in a while, I'm
not willing to delete that partition.  This means it's time for a new
drive.  I used Seagates, WDs, Maxtors and Quantoms at work, and they all
seem the same to me.  They've all been new as well though, so they'd
better work.  Those of you in the know, please recommend your favorite
brand/model, based on speed and capacity for price.  Speed it more
important as I think 4GB would suffice and you can't really buy anything
less than that today.

On a Linux-Specific note, anyone know how Lilo works?  I'm going to use
this as an opportunity to test out S.u.S.E. 6.2 that I picked up at the
Installfest and keep my existing RH installation.  Lilo will still be on
the MBR of /dev/hda, but can it point to a kernel image existing on
/dev/hhd?  On 2nd thought, I wouldn't really have to switch kernels,
would I?, just add a stanza for my current one pointing to a different
root device.  This means I would have kimage1,root->/dev/hda,RH and
kimage1,root->/dev/hdd,SuSE.  Anyone see any potential problems?

And does anyone know why the u in S.u.S.E. is lowercase, or what it
stands for?  It's German, right?

TIA
