Can I do it or should I just leave it alone? You can safely delete everything under /usr/obj/ The files there are created by a 'make buildworld'/'make buildkernel' and are only used for updating the system. Once a 'make installworld'/'make installkernel' is finished /usr/obj/* can be deleted. If you haven't a /usr/src around there is absolutely no reason to have /usr/obj around. -- <Insert your favourite quote here.> Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.uu.se
