Anyway, one thing you might want to look for are sources from the ports. That could take up a bit of space. also, check on how your space is divided up amoung your partitions, and see if you aren't losing a bunch of space there. Or, you can get a Western Digital 2.1 gig EIDE drive for about $200; that's what I'm doing as soon as I sell a Pentium 133... :) *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* |FreeBSD is good.
