Having separate filesystems for root, home, usr, and var is good.I am
surprised that root is so big and so full. I'm not too happy with the way
I did my Mandrake on my VAIO (long story); I ended up with a lot of unused
space in root, a big var and no home, so my /home is just a directory in
var. Ugly, but it works. Anyway, here is my df output:

Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda6               357800     43720    295607  13% /
none                     63320         0     63320   0% /dev/shm
/dev/hda1              8273316   4280360   3992956  52% /mnt/win_c
/dev/hda5               513024    128668    384356  26% /mnt/win_d
/dev/hda8              1604932   1419148    104256  94% /usr
/dev/hda9               719420    636340     46536  94% /var

Notice that my root is about 350M and only 13% full. Do you have a lot of
junk in /tmp?
