Hi,


You should do a make installworld and use mergemaster,
after that you can clean up your /usr/obj directory.

If you really don't have any disk space left.
You have to clean up, move some user data or
maybe zip or backup data. (which is recommented)


greetings,

Ben Stroeken

<p>I used the following to get into this situation:
<br>cd /usr/src

<br>make buildworld
<p># build and install custom kernel
<br>make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL

<p>The kernel built without error, boots and works great, I would just
