Hi, You don't need an unused space of 1.1G on /usr partition. The sentence you've pointed out states the whole partiton should have, at least, 1.1G but in a environment where /usr/X11R6, /usr/local, /usr/obj and /usr/src are on *separate* partitions, as it is offered in the default install. We experimented the lack of space here and there, but because the installations we are upgrading are coming from much older releases (on machine installations) and when the size of default install partitions had different needs... kind regards, Pedro
