Surprisingly, I often run into the problem of running out of disk space in Linux.
Here are some simple commands to check what consumes the most space:
- "df -k" shows the percentage of disk consumption for each partition
- "du --max-depth 1 -h /" shows how much space each directory under "/" consumes in megabytes
- "du -sm * | sort -n" does the same thing as the previous command
