/proc is a special type of file system and is always 100% full.

But your root partition is tiny, and I can believe that you're gonna have 
problems anyway.  Try building with MODULES_OVERRIDE or NO_MODULES in 
/etc/make.conf; try deleting everything you possibly can from the old drive; or 
consider getting something bigger: $100 will get you 100 times the space.
