Yes. In fact, if you have tuned your kernel to your liking, you can just as well do: # rm -r /usr/src/sys And if you don't plan to rebuild the system anytime soon, you could remove even more: # rm -r /usr/src/* Other candidates for removal on my /usr partition are: /usr/games - this server don't need no stinking games! /usr/sup - I keep my cvsup stuff elsewhere And, you can remove old cruft from /usr/obj, like: # chflags -R noschg /usr/obj # rm -rf /usr/obj/* HTH, -- Joshua Lokken Open Source Advocate
