Hello,

thanks for the feedback,

the target USB has 16G and has been emptied and has fat layout.

- The partition set up is the "auto" option, so that should be ok since
default ...?

- I also don't choose to install x* and *games packages at install ..

I have had sometimes full root in systems due to excess files in dev,
however I never had any system with default partition install complaining
about space,  especially when there is 15/16GB available ...

- the error message as i recall states that /usr is full

- I don't completly understand the feedback from the error : make : I dont
know how to make


Again thank you for your input,

i will seek to try this week with a custom parttion layout when installing
instead
of the default and offer /usr some extra space to breath ... will report
back in
comming days

regards,

eelco vitalis
