Hi, http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-steps.html At the moment you are recommending a 512MB partition for root ('/'). I have found this to be inadequate and I don't know how to resize partitions. If you recompile the kernel, backup GENERIC etc. you will quickly run out of space I have found. I think the figure should be changed to 1GB. Also you have no recommendation on 'home'. This seems to be an oversight, as it makes the recommended size for root even more inadequate. This email is for information only. I will not be responding to any replies. Christopher -- --------------------------------o00o-------------------------------- "In the beginning there was nothing.
