Known "feature". Simple get to one of the terminals, and manually mount
the missing partitions. Use "mount" and "df" to see what is mounted and
where, then mount whatever is needed, manually.
I assume that you haven't installed yet 10.2 and you are waiting at the
dvd install/upgrade screen.
Or... no, hold on, you are asking something different. You have already
installed, giving 3GB for /, and extra partitions for /tmp, /var, and
/home, and now you see that / is almost full... obviously. Most of the
stuff goes under /usr and /opt, which in your case goes to /. Well, you
could substitute /var with /usr, but /var can also be big.
There is a chapter in the admin book about proper partitioning for
systems, you should read it.
