Is that going to be enough? /tmp and /var are quite small. All the stuff is built in /usr/obj. On my system, the 6.0-STABLE build I did yesterday looks like this: {frank:adam:~} df /usr/obj/ Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s2e 507630 405354 61666 87% /usr/obj However, I have trimmed some stuff from userland and the kernel. With 3GB free in /usr you should have plenty of space. > Will go through the Makefile and see what happens this time round.
