Subject:   file system full during (KERNEL) make install

I'm able to get around this issue by deleting some stuff (oops!) but I'd
like to figure out how to avoid it entirely.

When I installed FreeBSD I allocated 60 meg to the root device, but I can't
find 60 meg of data.  Is it possible to resize the partition without
destroying the file system?

And ... while I'm at it ... is there a way that I can quickly determine
exactly how much space (in bytes/kbytes) is available on a file system?
I've been trying to interpret the information from fsck but it's not exactly
clear to me how "files,used, free, frags,  and blocks" corresponds to "2 meg
free" ... or whatever.

thanks
lane
~this is the reason they call it "questions," right?
