OpenFOAM redundant files

I'm trying to run OF-1.5-dev on a server but my user disk capacity is only 1GB. I wish to ask the experts on what I can safely remove from my installation (eg source code folders etc) without compromising the running of the solvers I want to use (all the incompressible and dynamic mesh solvers).

Cheers!

Hi

Then you might ask yourself whether or not it would be interesting at all to run anything on the server. I say this, as small problems you can run on your own computer and larger problems will yield large amounts of output data, hence you will probably not be able to store it on the servers disk.

Best regards,

Niels
