At the risk of this being a stupid question, I have run out of space on
my /usr
filesystem while doing a make install on Bind 8.2 (its FreeBSD
3.1-Release).
Here's a little info:

Output of df:
Filesystem  1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/wd1s2a    198399    27897   154631    15%    /
/dev/wd1s2h    597719    44324   505578     8%    /home
/dev/wd1s2f    694607   666675   -27636   104%    /usr
/dev/wd1s2g    694607    49705   589334     8%    /usr/local
/dev/wd1s2e     99183     2608    88641     3%    /var
procfs              4        4        0   100%    /proc

Output of ls /usr (reformatted to save space)
X11R6      bin      bind      compat      games      include
lib      libdata
libexec      local   mdec   obj              ports
sbin            share
src              tmp

Now comes the potentially stupid question: Is it reasonable to move
some of these subdirs to /usr/local and make a soft link to them to
create
more space on the /usr filesystem? Or won't that work?

Any suggestions appreciated.

Cheers
Loren
