Recently, I install one for testing. I like it a lot, I have install many things and update the system from time to time. Now many of the filesystems were filled. the usr, var, as well as / were all full from time to time. I still got a lot spaces in /usr/local. So I start moving things around, run make clean from time to time to save space. But I think it is time to re-allocate the space. Before I did that, I would like to ask for the help on how to allocate spaces? Are there any solution that keeping the current system by moving the existing system to a new disk without reinstall everything? Are there new development that can dynamically re-allocate the spaces? Moreover, I would like to hear from you about trying out the new filesystem available for freebsds. My system is not a production one, but a test-bed. I love install and try new things. I does not subscribe to the list yet. Please reply me directly. Thank you!
