Good evening,

I have a 1.1 gig drive.  I freshly installed FBSD 4.4 release.  It took 70%
of my drive just for the install and to download src and ports.  Then did
"make world" and let it go.  Slowly but surely, df -k reported that the disk
was filling.  Within 6 hours or so (its a 133mhz), the disk space had filled
to "104%" and make world had failed with error code 1.  Why does FBSD take so
much room?  HOw can I improve these results.  I think there must be someway
to do a small install of fbsd and then make world to patch security problems.
That's all I want to do.

What should I do differently?

Thank you

Eric
