I can't figure this out. I have been installing Debian for about 2 weeks of and on. I'm downloading from the net to a DOS partition. Every so often my Linux partition gives me a 'can not allocate memory error.' I run df and sure enough 100% of my partition is in used. Then I run dselect again or re-boot and I get the correct reading of 62% of the partition used! The last time this happened was last night. The night before I was using linux, but made no modification. I didn't add any files or remove any. I did touch and of the configuration file (the one that I know are anyway). I was in X using dfm to explore the structure I try to figure out the other problems I have. Maybe it has something to do with the way I logoff, that's all I can figure out. Can someone clue me in?
