Ran out of startup disk space on 10.4.8 update, now KP at startup
#21
[quote blusubaru]It was all the pro application updates that did it in. The OS would have been fine. And for the record I had 1gb of hard drive space left, granted, not a lot, but enough.
No it isn't.

Mac OS X needs LOTS of room for temp files and swap files, particularly if you have less than 1GB of RAM.

At a *dead minimum,* I would recommend you keep AT LEAST 2GB free at ALL times. As you've discovered, trouble is right around the corner when you ignore this guideline.
