It is working very good. When I encounter a problem with upgrading ports, I can rollback to old one by swapping a partition. I put everything under /ports partition and use mount_nullfs. Here is how it looks like: % df | grep port /dev/ad3s1e 5583486 3841966 1294842 75% /ports /ports/db/pkg 5583486 3841966 1294842 75% /var/db/pkg /ports/X11R6 5583486 3841966 1294842 75% /usr/X11R6 /ports/local 5583486 3841966 1294842 75% /usr/local /ports/compat 5583486 3841966 1294842 75% /usr/compat /dev/md0.uzip 886686 391416 424336 48% /usr/ports Hiro
