/ partition full

Hello,

When I installed FreeBSD I used the default partitioning options. Everything has worked great until today when I check df -ah to see this:
Code: 
Filesystem      Size    Used   Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/ad10s1a    496M    489M    -33M   107%    /
devfs           1.0K    1.0K      0B   100%    /dev
/dev/ad10s1e    496M    1.5M    455M     0%    /tmp
/dev/ad10s1f    442G    189G    218G    46%    /usr
/dev/ad10s1d    3.9G    820M    2.7G    23%    /var
I then checked dmesg.yesterday and noticed the last line said

Code: 
pid 56979 (pwd_mkdb), uid 0 inumber 49849 on /: filesystem full.

I dont understand why this is happening because this db file is located in /etc/. Anyways, what can I do to clean up my / partition. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
 
After running du I discovered that I had a tar file in /media that was supposed to be sent to my flashdrive. Must have specified the wrong device by accident. Since it wasn't mounted, it threw it in the / partition. Thanks
