Only do this if the one you do use is working well. But this size problem could haunt you later on in 5.x anyway.

Also, make sure that Soft-Updates is turned off on your root directory. Because Soft-Updates doesn't immediately free the space on the drive.

4.7-5.0, ran out of space on /
I just ran into a problem trying to install the 5.0 world. I thought I checked and had 30M free on / before I started this. However, after building, the world, building the kernel, installing the kernel, running mergemaster -p, I went to install the world and got the error 'out of space on /' I need to find some room, but I'm a little nervous about what I can rm. Here is what I'm looking at: 1) / partition is 79M, 64M are used (I was almost sure there was more room than that on / before I satarted). 2) /tmp is on it's own partition 3) du -h on subdirectories breakdown like this. a. 18M /boot b. 1.4M /etc c. 3.7M /kernel d. 3.9M /kern.GENERIC e. 6M /modules f. 21M /sbin g. 2.1M /stand as you can see that pretty much accounts for it. The rest of the stuff is pretty small. I need to know if I can delete any of this stuff and still successfully do a 'make installworld'?
