Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG In-Reply-To: Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG A 2.9GB /usr at 84% full should have >300MB free... so unless you're planning on getting close to that, it's not clear to me that you have a problem. That said, it's been my (limited) experience that a common consumer of /usr space is /usr/ports/distfiles; once the port is installed, I believe that the distfiles may be blown away with impunity. (And a "make clean" ini the port directory might be useful -- as well as removing some port trees that you're not interested in.) david -- David Wolfskill UNIX System Administrator dhw@whistle.com voice: (650) 577-7158 pager: (650) 371-4621 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
