Hardy is end of life

Filed under: Blogging,Ubuntu,Ubuntu-Server — kees @ 12:53 pm

Well, the second Ubuntu Long Term Support release, 8.04 Hardy, has reached end-of-life. (Along with 11.10 Oneiric and the Desktop Support for the 10.04 LTS Lucid.) Flushing my package mirror of Hardy and Oneiric was pretty dramatic, freeing up about 142GB worth of space.

Before:

$ df -h /var/cache/mirrors/
Filesystem                        Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/sysvg-debmirrorlv  753G  692G   62G  92% /var/cache/mirror

After:

$ df -h /var/cache/mirrors/
Filesystem                        Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/sysvg-debmirrorlv  753G  550G  204G  73% /var/cache/mirror

If only online filesize resize shrinking worked. :)
