Hi guys it seems i fall over at step three! I can and have installed all programs except vncviewer! Please help pulling my hair out over this!

my server has 2 750 hdd...is there another guide on how to partition, format, and make /dev/sdb like it is just additonal 750 gb and not a second drive?

Im having some problems with the HDD space of my box. I have an OVH box (seedhost.eu) that is supposed to come with a 250gb HDD. I'm sharing with one person and we've dl'ed over 500gb. To delete the stuff we no longer need, we've either used winscp and just deleted like that or used utorrent to remove torrent and data. However, I've encountered a Disk full error, although only 120gb is being used combined presently. I had a torrent with 2.5gb left to dl that gave me the error, so i removed and deleted via utorrent a 6gb torrent. I then resumed the torrent, but 10 seconds later, i get the Error: Disk full msg as the torrents status. Can anyone help me out here? BTW, I'm using Debian Etch and I'm a complete linux noob.

type in a terminal:

Code:

---

$ df -h

---

and you will se the available space. If the available space is much lesser than you expected you will have to clean the trash folders:

Code:

---

$ sudo rm -rf /home/<username>/.local/share/Trash/files
$ sudo rm -rf /home/<username>/.local/share/Trash/info

---

Also check the advanced settings of utorrent:
gui.delete_to_trash must be set to false.

maybe someone can help me here:
i installed everything as the tuturial says, firefox and the other programs
but after i finished, i could start a ssh session,when i tried to connect and run command line it says that the server doesnt support the terminal
and i tried all the 3 terminals.
if someone can help me with that it will be great
thanks in advance1

Which 3 terminals are you referring to?

Sorry but I don't understand. you are referring to the terminal emulator (ssh client)?

I use putty as most people do:

Hmmm, if you can't run any command there is nothing you can do. Try restarting the server from your manager, if that doesn't work submit a support ticket and wait for a reply.

Edit: I have found this http://www.tektonic.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1296
but try restarting first as I said
