The big problem is that it looks like you have /var and /uar in root. Those can grow unexpectedly - especially /var when logs and mail grow. /usr can grow when you install ports. So, your best bet might be to move /var or /var/mail, /var/spool and /var/log to /home and make symlinks. You could also put /usr/src and /usr/ports in /home and make symlinks. That would give you lots of room and eliminate most unexpected growth. Really, it is also a good idea to have /tmp in its own partition as well for the same protection of unexpected growth issue. If you don't want to deal with moving thing and making symlinks (I do that a lot and it is easy) you could back everything up and then repartition and make file systems for /usr. /var and /tmp. ////jerry > > This beeing the default base for my previous kernel / system update > > > *default host=cvsup5.fr.FreeBSD.org > *default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup > *default prefix=/usr > *default tag=RELENG_5_5 > *default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress > src-all > > > > Are there any other file I should be removing ? > > Knowing that I have already removed /boot/kernel.old > > ? > > > > Thanks for your support. > > > > ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ > Gregober ---> PGP ID --> 0x1BA3C2FD > bsd @at@ todoo.biz > ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ > > P "Please consider your environmental responsibility before printing > this e-mail" > > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" >
