Hi there. I have a pc with a small HD and a minimal (just binary, no docs, no man, no src, etc...) 4.0-RELEASE. Now I want to upgrade it to STABLE using a second PC where I cvsup'd STABLE. So this is the configuration: - machine A: - stable src-all, doc-all - current ports-all - machine B: - minimal installation 4.0-release I modified /etc/make.conf on both A and B with all options I found on /etc/defaults/make.conf that let's you not include parts of the system (NOPROFILE, NO_CVS, NO_SENDMAIL, NO_SHAREDOCS, etc...) So I went on and - buildworld, buildkernel on A - mounted /usr/src and /usr/obj on B. - installkernel and installworld on B But it failed during installworld for a write error as there's no space left on the HD. So I checked and found out that this configuration installs far too much... even the man pages... How can I get a minimal installation using installworld like the one I had from the installation CD? (only binaries, no doc, no src, ...) Please reply to my mailbox as well, as I'm not on the list. Best regards. -- Roberto Nunnari Luck is... miss the wrong train.
