Re: How much disk space required for make release?
I want to thank everyone for their suggestions. I ended up creating a larger swap and /tmp and reran make release with much better results. It's not completely finished yet, but has certainly progressed much further than the other day. == Vincent (Rick) Miller Systems Engineer vmil...@verisign.com t: 703-948-4395 21345 Ridgetop Cir Dulles, VA 20166 VerisignInc.com On 8/16/11 5:50 PM, Edwin L.

Hello all, I am attempting to 'make release' 8.2-RELEASE. After running for a few hours, it died citing lack of disk space. The filesystem has approximately 80GB available. How much disk space is required when making a release? According to my notes... You will need approximately 600MB of storage space available on the filesystem that `/usr/src' resides on. Meanwhile, you'll need an additional 3GB (approximately) of storage space available on the filesystem that `/usr/release' resides on. And further still, you'll need an additional 600MB of storage space for the `/usr/obj' directory. So if all three directories (`/usr/src', `/usr/obj', and `/usr/release') live on the same filesystem, you'll need approximately 4.2GB of free space to build a FreeBSD release (including the source). Please note however, that this estimate is low because I never compile a release with the default options. I usually use the following: make release CHROOTDIR=/usr/release EXTSRCDIR=/usr/src KERNELS_BASE= \ NODOC=YES NO_FLOPPIES=YES NOCDROM=YES NOPORTS=YES The above options _significantly_ reduce the size of disk space required to build the release. -- Devin _ The information contained in this message is proprietary and/or confidential.

A gig or 2 I recall, (each of src/ obj/ I recall is ~ 600M then there's a chroot, so same again, but a few gig should be sufficient. 80G is more than enough, You must have some partiton that overflowed, maybe /tmp or /var. If you cant find what, just run eg touch ~//df.log #!/bin/csh while (1) df ~/df.log sleep 300 end then start release again, the log will show where its getting eaten However I seem to recall some env var that allows piorts/ to be called in too Now ports/distfiles alone is maybe 100 Gig or so ... so avoid ports/ Sorry to be imprecise, I havent rolled a release for months, though I used to do it very frequently.
