Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I happened to be playing with one of my LAN servers after upgrading to FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE, and noticed the following: [root@poppy:~]# mount -p /dev/wd0s1a / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/wd0s1f /tmp ufs rw 2 2 /dev/wd0s1g /usr ufs rw 2 2 /dev/wd0s2e /usr/home ufs rw,nosuid 2 2 /dev/wd0s1e /var ufs rw,nosuid 2 2 procfs /proc procfs rw 0 0 then: [root@poppy:~]# df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/wd0s1a 49583 40931 4686 90% / /dev/wd0s1f 99183 217 91032 0% /tmp /dev/wd0s1g 1524425 1193656 208815 85% /usr /dev/wd0s2e 2179530 482494 1522674 24% /usr/home /dev/wd0s1e 99183 13448 77801 15% /var procfs 4 4 0 100% /proc Now, I'm not the guy who installed FreeBSD on this machine and I can't for the life of me figure why the guy before me set aside 99MB for /tmp. As you can see, only a couple of hundred KB are being used while my root directory is 90% full -- and that only because I deleted the /modules.old directory. Is there any way I can change the size of the slices that were set up during the initial installation? It would be really nice if I could split up /dev/wd0s1f and assign the space to / and /usr. -- Roger You're only young once, but you can be immature forever!
