[ale] HELP - Out of Storage on /

[jdp at algoloma.com (JD)]

Thanks. Nothing found on the /dev/sda1 partition.

find, du and df all showing the same bug?

I dropped the size param from larger than 200M to just 100M to ensure it was
actually working. Then it found 3 files - an amarok cache and 2 devices under
/sys/devices/pci0000

Other ideas?
