[-- Attachment #1 --] I sent this message a couple of days ago with no response. I'm really hoping for some direction as I'm stuck right now in getting FreeBSD running. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. ******************************************************************************************************** As a newbie, I've had the same experience as Soso and also am hoping for direction on how to solve this. I did have FreeBSD 4.4 installed without error so am not sure why 4.5 is different. The setup is: Machine: PII 100 Mhz, 1.2 Gig HD, 40 Mg RAM. I know this is a low end machine but as I'm new to FreeBSD and am interested in playing with ipFW & Apache this was a machine that I could dedicate to FreeBSD. Install: Dedicated HD to FreeBSD and auto-defaults (128 Mg /, 65 Mg swap, 256 Mg VAR, 256 Mg tmp, 516 Mg USR). Installed X-User, with default basic slection for XFree. The install recommended installing Ports and said that it would burn 100 Mg so I did select it. Error: /mnt/usr: create/symlink failed, no inodes free. How can I have burned 517 Mg in the USR space during the install? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Eric.
