Provide some realistic help or save yourself the bandwidth. The OP will have to figure out how much space is on the file systems and som eidea of how much is needed and determine if there is even enough space to do the upgrade. Then either move things around, delete unneeded things or get more disk or back stuff up and do a clean initial install and put back only needed data or some usefule combination. But, the first thing is to find out how much disk there is and how it is being used. For that, df and du are your friends. Check them in the man pages. df -k will give you a reasonable picture of your filesystems. From within a filesystem or any directory using du -sk * will give a picture of hos the disk space is being used withing that directory. After getting a picture of space use and availability, it is possible to plan from there. This is pretty well documented in the handbook and FAQs and previous mailing list threads so a little searching will be good. ////jerry > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
