the unix command "df" will tell you what kind of space you have on your
partitions, like so:
[mutex@andromeda mutex]$ df
Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda12 48421508 40073392 5888380 88% /
none 513076 0 513076 0% /dev/shm
now, by default it gives it to you in bytes, and sometimes this isn't
terribly helpful, so the -h flag will give you a slightly more readable
output:
[mutex@andromeda mutex]$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda12 46G 39G 5.6G 88% /
none 501M 0 501M 0% /dev/shm
check the man page on df for more cool flags.
good luck
