Tested and reproductible on a VM configured with a 4Go or 5Go hard drive as example. During install process I choose these distribution sets: ports and src only. And I'm using guided partitioning / Entire Disk / All Auto The installer failed during archive extraction of ports.txz (at about 88% progress of this file extraction) with this kind of message: Error while extracting ports.txz: Can't create 'usr/ports/XX/YY' And on the background there is this message: ..on /mnt: out of inodes Because these distribution sets (ports and src only) consume only 2.7Go of disk space, it should be possible to install it on a 3Go hard drive. >How-To-Repeat: Installing distribution set ports and src on a VM with less than 6Go hard drive. >Fix: Using a minimum of 6Go hard drive fix the problem. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
