end of Can I delete /usr/src ? from Darryl Hoar
It's often nice to have the source code around for reference, and for
rebuilds, updates, and stuff like lsof which builds better if kernel
source is available.
My advice would be to whack /usr/obj, which
Yes. However, if you have custom kernel configuration files in
/usr/src/sys/i368/conf, then save them some place safe if you have not
done this already. Then remove with
rm -rf /usr/src/*
This will leave the /usr/src directory.
An alternative is to tar and compress /usr/src with
tar czf

greetings,
I cvsupped from 4.7-release to 4.7-stable. Followed all the steps to do
that.
I need to reclaim some disk space. Can I delete the files under /usr/src?
Currently it's consuming roughly 340 MB of space ?
thanks,
Darryl
You can delete /usr/src, and also /usr/obj,
Many appologies,
I mean /usr/obj but stated /usr/src. I have
purged /usr/obj and now have my space back.
Many thanks to all that responded.
