Hi, 

I just picked up a junker 133, with a 1 gig hard drive.  It works. but I put
fbsd 4.4 r on last night, downloaded all src, then made world.  i awoke the
next morning to file system full errors.

I had given / 100MB, /var 300mB I think, 50MB to /boot, and the remainder to
/usr.  is this about right? 

WHat did I do wrong; I mean why did I run out of space.  I just want to do a
minumal install, and patch my security holes by doing make world.  What is a
better way to do this, or is it impossible with such a small drive?

Eric
