Before the upgrade, running df showed: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1a 507630 77662 389358 17% / devfs 1 1 0 100% /dev /dev/da0s1e 507630 588 466432 0% /tmp /dev/da0s1f 268217320 4866120 241893816 2% /usr /dev/da0s1d 4298926 162066 3792946 4% /var Now it shows: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1a 507630 184834 282186 40% / devfs 1 1 0 100% /dev /dev/da0s1e 507630 426 466594 0% /tmp /dev/da0s1f 268217320 5514844 241245092 2% /usr /dev/da0s1d 4298926 187570 3767442 5% /var Notice the the increase in the root partition. Should I have made this = partition bigger when I first installed? Is there any cleaning up I can do = after version upgrades? I would've thought /usr would be the one that grew = more, but then again my /usr partition is fairly sizeable. Does 7.0 just = take up a lot more of the root partition than 6.2? - Gavin
