This model has 5 partitions on 2 disks. That's 3 partitions more than you need. It's also 3 times more likely to experience a full partition than a system with only 1 partition per disk. Perhaps it would be easier to use symbolic links to maintain /var/log on a different disk than /var? -- Roger Marquis Roble Systems Consulting http://www.roble.com/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
