G4 Disk full

by Barry OGrady <god_free_jones@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jan 1, 2008 at 01:06 PM

I have a Powemac G4 which came with a 10 gig hard drive.
It has OSX 10.4 and Classic installed. The disk is full and I
can't see any large files I can delete to free up space.
I added a 20 gig hard drive as slave on the same controller
and OSX sees it OK.
I'd like to know the best way to use the 20 gig drive to free
up space on the 10 gig drive without reinstalling OSX.
With OS 9 I was able to initialise the new HD with disk utility
and just drag and drop the files across. That doesn't seem
to work with OSX. 
Would it work if I just moved the applications folder to the
20 gig drive, or must I reinstall everything?
Any advice is appreciated.

Barry
