I'm trying to install FreeBSD 3.4 on an old 486 I've got lying around to
use as a NATing firewall for my home network, but I've only got a 200
Meg HD around. I'm gonna go get another HD later, but right now I'd
like to get running with just that. So far I've been trying with 16 to
swap and various other combinations, but it always seems to run out of
/usr space. I figure / should be at least 32MB, and the rest (~152MB)
goes to /usr. I'm trying to install the binaries, the docs, and the
kernel source (but not the rest of the source). Any idea if it's even
possible? Should I shrink down the root partition more? I've done
loads of installs at this point, but all on HDs with at least a gig for
FreeBSD. Any ideas where I can get a bigger HD that's still under the
limit for old BIOSen? Thanks in advance for any help.
