And I have just been reinstalling the whole system again. I found that the disk shortage does not come from gnome but from OpenOffice 1.1 installation. Then, would OpenOffice require a large HDD space? (If it does, how much large?) For your reference, I have partitioned (and labeled) the disk by using Auto Allocation(?) option in FreeBSD disk labeler. Thank you.
