It's a clean install of FreeBSD 8.0 on a 50G drive, and I let sysinstall select the default partition configuration when I did the install. I've taken the following steps: # csup -4 /etc/stable-supfile # cd /usr/src # make buildworld # make buildkernel # make installkernel After the make installkernel command, the / partition shows 106% capacity (and it started as 500M). Here's my before and after running "make installkernel" Before: Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1a 496M 253M 203M 55% / devfs 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100% /dev /dev/da0s1e 496M 12K 456M 0% /tmp /dev/da0s1f 44G 3.0G 37G 8% /usr /dev/da0s1d 1.9G 10M 1.8G 1% /var After: Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1a 496M 485M -29M 106% / devfs 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100% /dev /dev/da0s1e 496M 12K 456M 0% /tmp /dev/da0s1f 44G 3.0G 37G 8% /usr /dev/da0s1d 1.9G 10M 1.8G 1% /var # cd / # du -h -d2 | grep M 2.0K ./tmp/.XIM-unix 33M ./usr/bin 18M ./usr/include 37M ./usr/lib 20M ./usr/libexec 267M ./usr/local 20M ./usr/sbin 37M ./usr/share 511M ./usr/src 450M ./usr/ports 10M ./var/db 10M ./var 1.7M ./etc 1.1M ./bin 233M ./boot/kernel 233M ./boot/kernel.old 466M ./boot 7.4M ./lib 4.3M ./rescue 4.4M ./sbin It looks like the both kernels are eating up the entire / Right? What am I doing wrong? The isn't normal, is it? Thank you, Ed
