Just did an install with encrypted VLM (probably irrelevant to the issue) using option to create separate partitions for /, /home, /usr, /var, /tmp. Disk size is 160GB. I took the default partition sizes and root is at 100% upon boot. /usr is at 72%. Time reinstall....
Yes, this is the most valueable before locate disk,
be carefull of this step
Thank you for the information. After doing a backup of some 200GB's I will also be doing a full format and reinstall. My plan is to partition the hard drive into 3. 2x80GB partitions, one for Kali, and the other for windows, and then 300+- GB's for storage. I tried earlier with a previous install of Windows and BackTrack, but Windows ran into problems because of the many partitions I already had on the disk. (For some reason I believe Windows thought I was using a raid system).
Will install Windows first, then Kali.
What did you wanted to convey with this thread?

Just reinstalled with one large / partition, but away from the host so I don't have the directory sizes handy to post right now. Perhaps someone else can add that info.
