C: drive is full - second post.

[Andrew R. Siegel]

**I posted this last week and got some really good replys,
except no one answered the questions I have about deleting
folders.**

I'm in the process of rebuilding a server, but in the
meantime, I need to free up space on the boot partition of
the current one.

For what ever reason, before I started working here, this
server was built with a 2GB boot partition. I now have
about 250MB free space and need to free up space soon.

Can I safely delete the folders "$NtUninstallKB####$? I
have no intention of uninstalling these updates.

Also, is there anything I can do about the
ServicePackFiles folder? It's 228MB.

I have a lot of space on the D: drive. Is there a way to
move these folders if I can't delete them? If I move
them, do I need to change a pointer somewhere so Windows
can find the folders?

Thanks.

Yes, you can safely delete the update folders. As always,
I would back everything up beforehand.

As far as the service pack files go, see Microsoft KB
290402 for very helpful information.
