But you can make another partition on you disk (possibly an extended one), formatted in UFS and mount it somewhere in you tree. Use 'du -x -d 1 /' to see what is the largest directory. Disregard the lines for /usr and /var as they are separate, as df showed above. Perhaps /tmp has grown out of bounds? Which can be solved by symlinking /tmp to /usr/tmp for example. man du and man ln are very helpful. My box says (for you to get a hang of the kind of sizes to expect) lagrange# du -d 1 -x / 3321 /dev 1 /usr 1 /var 1922 /stand 562 /etc 2 /cdrom 1 /proc 3283 /bin 335 /boot 1 /lkm 50 /mnt 1746 /modules 2879 /root 8081 /sbin 1 /dist 1 /a 28177 / Note that /tmp is not there as the '-x' was specified for du. And /usr and /var are just mount points. /Micke ---------------------------------- Michael Josefsson, MSEE mj@isy.liu.se This message was sent by XFMail running on FreeBSD 3.4 ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
