Hi,

Read up on the Automatic disk allocation chapter in the disklabel manual as mentioned by Raf. Basically partitions are dynamically allocated based on total disk-space with a few exceptions - the following paths have their own partitions on disks larger than 7G (so you are mistaken about the /usr/src part, as Raf said). Maybe you should use "make clean" after your jobs? What exactly is using all your disk space? I suggest reading "15.3.6 - Cleaning up after a build" at http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq15.html

2G /usr/src
2G /usr/obj
10G /usr/local
1G /usr/X11R6

Hi,
Hi Carlos,

I’m a new OpenBSD user, so please forgive me if this topic has been
discussed thoroughly already.

I installed a new box using the default partitioning (2GB for
/usr) and I found that it’s a bit insufficient since /usr/ports,
/usr/xenocara and /usr/src hang from there on the same partition, and
eat up most of those 2GB. I’ve searched online and some users also
found the same problem

Do you think it would be a good idea to increase that number to about
5GB? I could try to write a simple patch for it.
It all depends on the size of your disk but most likely you are mistaken.

man 8 disklabel
