Hi Blues,


I have done some XTR upgrades from BQ source backported.
If you are interested, let me know.



Especially, the default 484M /var slice is too small for today standard.
I recommend that you upgrade to BQ or 550 OS.

If you aint comfortable upgrading, 
then do partition file:EXTRA-PARTITION  in /home
And link it to /var/spool/mail

So that the default /var 'wouldnt burst its bank'

eg:


/dev/md1              984M  834M  150M  85% /
/dev/md3              484M   54M  430M  12% /var
/dev/md4               52G  7.7G   44G  15% /home



/home/EXTRA-PARTITION
                      1.9G  2.2M  1.8G   1% /varmailspool


[Steps]

rsync -a /var/spool/mail /varmailspool

cd /var/spool

mv mail mail.orig

ln -s /varmailspool /var/spool/mail


ps: If you want me to do for you.
    Drop me a mail off the list.
