Have you rebooted your machine lately? It's possible you had deleted a large file that another program still had open. The space will not get freed up until the file is closed. If you don't want to reboot, you can run "fstat -f /" to list all the open files on /, and see if there are any large ones open. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
