My / slice got full and I wonder if there might be any way increasing size through free space on HD?
Yes, there is, and I see that someone has already replied calling your attention to growfs. However, there is almost certainly something wrong if / gets full. You should find out what is filling / before you undertake any remedy. Some possible causes: (Recently discussed) dumping to a mount point when in fact the dump device is not mounted. /tmp not a separate file system and something using too much /tmp Running as root, instead of as an ordinary user, or not purging root's old mail (much of which are routine reports which are seldom good for anything after a day or two) In freebsd /home should be a symbolic link to /usr/home. User directories should be in /usr/home. There just should not be much in / to get bigger except /root, and you should not be keeping much of anything in /root. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
