Wow, you’re right baobab looks really cool, gonna check it out
But in this special case I was on a Remote Shell (SSH) and all I needed was a short overview where to store the *bigger* ones of my files, so I needed no GUI solution :o)

If you need to get the size of all directories within a directory just execute `du -hsc *`. This will show up a summary of all directories.

elsobrino: Cool Command, but I only needed to see which partition has how much used disk space, you know?
Anyway, `du -hsc *` is a good solution to find big files etc. so thanks for your contribution mate! :o)
