in a case where you partitioned your disc as suggested in the freebsd handbook, you might only have two partitions in all (/ and /usr). in this case you can move (if not already done so) your /var and /home directory to /usr and place a symlink to the original directories. eg. /var -> /usr/var/, /home -> /usr/home/ now if these two directories were filling up your root partition, this should have helped. maybe you can also move /tmp but i'm not exactly sure if this will cause problems or not. markus "Charles A.
