Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 73G 14G 55G 21% / /dev/sda1 99M 12M 82M 13% /boot none 247M 0 247M 0% /dev/shm However, after running the calculation, I got the following message. **** Warning!!: The largest alpha MO coefficient is 0.60503943D+02 Disk-based method using ON**2 memory for 30 occupieds at a time. Estimated scratch disk usage= 594240712 words. Actual scratch disk usage= 593732296 words. Erroneous write during file extend. write 28671 instead of 4096 Probably out of disk space. Write error in NtrExt1: Success Erroneous write during file extend. write 28671 instead of 4096 Probably out of disk space. Write error in NtrExt1 But, when I checked the disk space again, the available space was still 53GB. I shall be very much obliged if some one can help me out. Regards, A. K. Phukan
