I then did an install, and basically said yes to a fairly large number of packages. The /mnt/var file system ran out of Inodes (which was probably set by the automatic disk partitioning strategy of the installation script). >How-To-Repeat: See the full description, just say yes to every package (although I did not say yes to japanese, korean or chinese language support related packages). >Fix: Have mkfs give a more reasonable default for the automatic disk partitioning option in the installation. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
