I'm sorry I was not more specific.
/var has 256MB
/tmp has 256
/ has 256
/usr has 4500MB
newfs had been run on everything.
ftp was passive.
Since base is about 46MB of material, it seems it could put it anywhere.
This occurs 3% of the way into the extration of base into / via
ftp. I did burn a CD and install off of that in the end and the
problem went away.
