The faq. said 100 megabytes would usually be enough for the / partition. I decided to install freebsd with 300M for the / partition just to be on the safe side. The only thing i have added since the original install is the linux compatibility and some linux apps i needed such as netscape, opera etc. Ok, now for some reason my / partition shows to be full and i cant figure it out as like i said only a few apps have been installed. It appears to me that after adding linux compatibility the / partition went to full maybe because of the syslink "compat" that was placed on my / partition by the freebsd-5.1 linux compatibility port. > > > # df -h > Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on > /dev/ad0s1a 290M 269M -1.7M 101% / > devfs 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100% /dev > /dev/ad0s1f 965M 2.0K 888M 0% /home > /dev/ad0s1g 965M 2.0K 888M 0% /private > /dev/ad0s1e 484M 10.0K 445M 0% /tmp > /dev/ad0s1h 33G 1.4G 29G 5% /usr > /dev/ad0s1d 145M 9.2M 124M 7% /var > > > # cd / > # pwd > / > KroNiC# ls > .cshrc boot dist private sys > .profile cdrom entropy proc tmp > COPYRIGHT cdrom1 etc root usr > XF86Config.new compat home sbin var > bin dev mnt stand > > > Is there another way this should be done? > > Thanks in advance. > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" Are you running netscape/opera as root? If so check the size of the .netscape .opera directories in /root. They can get quite big. If not, use something like du -d 2 | sort -n in all directories which are living in your root partition to look for the guilty directories. - Till
