Well, regardless if this feature were implemented or not, you'd likely be
waiting for weeks or, more likely months for it to be available.  So, in the
meantime, I'm guessing you want a solution, yes?  Okay:

1) Increase the amount of space Myth requires to be free.

Setting this to 4 or 8 GB *may* solve your problem (another poster the list
certainly mentioned it as a possibility).

2) Buy another hard disk.

Given the price of disks these days, this seems like the simplest, quickest
solution for you.  of course, if you don't have LVM, it's a little more
challenging, but you can just move most of the content to the new drive and
symlink everything else.

Or, of course, there's always option 3) delete some of the stuff you care
less about. :)

Brett.
