     Re: [snips-users] hostmon errors

Yes, I think there are more details of this in the archive... it would
seem to be a "simple" partition of something being close to full (in the
default config).  It's been seen, but personally I've not gone after it
and tried to find it for Vikas... but, once I started keeping my root
partition less-than-close-to-full, it seemed to go away (well, the alert
did - I think it may still log, though).
