Will deleting the ports files > tantamount to deleteing a folder in windows without uninstalling first By default pkg_add (and installing from ports tree) records the relevant information in /var/db/pkg/, deleting /usr/ports will not affect your ability to pkg_add or pkg_delete (pkg_deinstall?) in the least, though it will deeply hinder your ability to install from ports. If you have the option, move /usr/obj to some other drive, even if not, and assuming you have extra space on some other partition (if /home is particularly barren), you can create a directory and symlink it to /usr/obj. % ls -l /usr total 44 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 16 Feb 10 2006 X11R6 -> /usr/local/X11R6 drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 7168 Jan 17 09:54 bin drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Feb 10 2006 compat drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jan 17 09:48 games lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 5 Feb 10 2006 home -> /home drwxr-xr-x 47 root wheel 4608 Jan 17 09:46 include drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel 8704 Jan 17 09:54 lib drwxr-xr-x 5 root wheel 512 Feb 10 2006 libdata drwxr-xr-x 5 root wheel 1536 Jan 17 09:54 libexec drwxr-xr-x 16 root wheel 512 Nov 12 17:47 local lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 9 Nov 4 11:45 obj -> /home/obj lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 6 Feb 10 2006 ports -> /ports drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 5120 Jan 17 09:54 sbin drwxr-xr-x 27 root wheel 512 Feb 10 2006 share lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 9 Nov 2 12:13 src -> /home/src drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Dec 17 16:01 tmp -- --
