Thanks for the info. :)  I was thinking about the size of procfs (4k)  I'm
trying to increase that memory space cause the procfs is always full...  I'm
not too sure why, but it's preventimg me from even running 'top' or
anything.

the symptoms just seem to have started as soon as I installed a 3com 3905B
10/100 NIC.

Filesystem    Size   Used  Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/ad0s1a    48M    31M    13M    70%    /
/dev/ad0s1f   2.7G   349M   2.2G    14%    /usr
/dev/ad0s1e    19M   3.5M    14M    19%    /var
procfs        4.0K   4.0K     0B   100%    /proc
/dev/ad4s1e    74G   286M    68G     0%    /sfs1
/dev/ad5s1e    74G   286M    68G     0%    /sfs2

Any ideas on how I could alleviate this problem?  would it be safe to simply
try to remove the files in there?
