[Charlug] Out of Space Reported by Logwatch

[Michael McCandless]

On Fedora 10, logwatch reports 'disk filling up', specifically:

--------------------- Disk Space Begin ------------------------

 Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
 /dev/sda3             373M  351M  2.1M 100% /
 /dev/sda8             494M   11M  458M   3% /home
 /dev/sda7            1012M   34M  927M   4% /tmp
 /dev/sda6             3.0G  314M  2.6G  11% /var
 /dev/sda5             4.0G  2.4G  1.4G  64% /usr
 /dev/sda1             373M   31M  323M   9% /boot

 /dev/sda3 => 100% Used. Warning. Disk Filling up.

---------------------- Disk Space End -------------------------

How do I (easily) find what is taking up so much space?  When I do:
ll /

I just get a bunch of directories, e.g.:

ll -hs /

What command(s) do I execute to tell me what is taking up all my space on /
?
