- I've been running OS/2 for a while and have had no real problems. Recently
- though, I tried to delete a bunch of files to free up space. I "shredded"
- their icons and then deleted the files at the command line. To my amazement,
- there was only a tiny change in my free disk space. I don't have the undelete
- option enabled. What's going on?!? It's so bad now that the system has
- slowed to a crawl with only about 3Mb free.
-
- BTW, so I make myself clear: The files do disappear, but thier space is not
- freed up.
-
- Thanks, Jeff
