Thank you very much for your help. I am able to see that my curent directory has a total of 11G and only 1.6G are available.
FreeSurfer:~> df -h . Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda1 11G 8.3G 1.6G 85% /
When I try to use the quota command it says "command not found".
Since there is only 1.6G available in my home directory, what can I do to find a place to save the sample data from the website to use for the tutorials?
By checking the freespace on the rest of the files systems it seems like there is no place where I can download 100G of data... FreeSurfer:~> df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda1 11G 8.3G 1.6G 85% / tmpfs 1.5G 0 1.5G 0% /lib/init/rw varrun 1.5G 104K 1.5G 1% /var/run varlock 1.5G 0 1.5G 0% /var/lock udev 1.5G 152K 1.5G 1% /dev tmpfs 1.5G 0 1.5G 0% /dev/shm lrm 1.5G 2.4M 1.5G 1% /lib/modules/2.6.28-11-generic/volatile FreeSurfer:~>
Any ideas of what I can do to change this? Thanks again for your help. I really appreciate it.

Small unix lesson
A period "." is shortcut for the current directory
"df" is a utility for seeing how much free space is left on a file system. Unless quotas are involved which I am pretty sure they are not on the VirtualBox image distributed. At the Martinos Center quotas are involved with home directories, mail boxes and the /cluster volumes.
If you are in a directory and run
df -h .
you will see how much free space is left on the filesystem the directory resides on. For example, in my home diretory I run 'df .' and I see
| gate:~$ df -h . | Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on | homes:/local_mount/homes/011 | 287G 69G 219G 24% /autofs/homes/011
which means there is 219GB free space on the filesystem my homedir is on
But like I said home directories have quotas so I run
| gate:~$ quota -s | Filesystem blocks quota limit grace files quota limit | homes:/local_mount/homes/011 | 1746M 3907M 3956M 20004 0 0
and I see I am using 1.7GB out of my 4GB home directory quota.

Hi,
I am a research assistant and I'm new to Freesurfer. I am using Windows and downloaded the VirtualBox and Freesurfer. I was able to get through the steps on the website for "Testing Freesurfer". However, I get stuck when I am trying to download the sample data for the tutorials. In the directions for downloading the sample data, it tells you to find a directory with 100GB of space. How do I do that? It seems to me that there is no area in my directory which has any where near that much room. The computer which I am running on has over 800G free but I don't see how that relates to the terminal which I am using in VirtualBox. I am not familiar with Linux so I am doing my best to figure it out but I just can't see to find a way to download the data for the tutorials. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you very much.
