I just did a fresh install of FreeBSD-8.0/amd64. Previously, I had FreeBSD-7.3/i386 installed. It appears the the size of "/" has increased dramatically.
$ df -H Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/ad0s1a 1.0G 527M 428M 55% / devfs 1.0k 1.0k 0B 100% /dev /dev/ad0s1d 520M 18k 478M 0% /tmp /dev/ad0s1e 236G 6.0G 212G 3% /usr /dev/ad1s1d 238G 720M 218G 0% /var When I attempted to build World and a new kernel after first installing 8.0, I received an error that "/" was at 106% and the process stopped. I reinstalled 8.0 and increased the size to 1.0G and now everything appears to be working correctly. In my old installation, the root directory only used a minuscule amount of space. Why has it increased so dramatically in 8.0/amd64? -- Jerry freebsd.u...@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
