Use OS 9 to delete huge files that OS X won't delete
Authored by: olivesoft on Mar 16, '04 05:56:35PM
Reading the article:
I recently nearly ran out of hard drive space when, unbeknownst to me, a third-party extension began excessive logging to a log file.
Note they said that the hard drive was nearly full. I think that was the problem, not that the file was 8GB in size. However, I do find it hard to understand how rm'ing the file from the command line would crash.
