I've decided to increase the size of my FBSD partition and while I'm at it,
will install 4.1 STABLE.  I also think reinstalls are a great way to gain OS
experience fast.  The last time (my first) I installed 4.0, I allowed the
pre-config program to "auto" slice the partition.  Now, even though the
partition is 1087MB, the slice where /usr resides is reporting 104% full (df
-h).  I was surprised because the only thing I installed was KDE, Netscape,
mtools, and the tcsh shell.

Is auto the way to go or should I manually configure the slices?  If anyone
recommends the manual method please explain how and why.  Thanks.

Mark
