[server-admins] what's left on root?

Hey admins,

Could you let me know if any of your data is being stored on the root 
partition of the CrossWire server, and what we can move over to our data 
partition (/space)?

For the wiki, I've just moved /var/lib/mysql to /space/opt/mysql
(11KB of errors of the ~500MB moved.)

Also to limit writes to the drive, I've moved:

/var/log/httpd
/var/spool/exim
/var/spool/mail
/var/spool/mailman


Is there anything else like this we can move?

I like to keep the root partition free of any data that we consider 
worthy of preserving, and now it is more important than ever, as this 
partition is experiencing problems.

Troy
