I don't know how you can manage them with the upgrade shell script, you will have to look through the script to determine that. Somehow or another you need to make sure after each port is updated its work area is being cleaned before moving on to the next port. One thing you may want to consider is setting WRKDIRPREFIX=/tmp in /etc/make.conf this way you can monitor the size of /tmp with du and then maybe manually delete the work areas of ports you are certain have been updated. -Mike ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

And take a look at du -hs /usr/ports/distfiles/ /usr/ports/packages You shouldn't really need any packages. And you can manage distfiles with portsclean (installed with portupgrade). Left unmanaged they can quickly mount up to several GB. A full set of up-to-date files for a desktop machine should take up about a 1 GB. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: How much HDD space does FreeBSD need?
Well, I have just formatted the portion that FreeBSD is placed. And I have just been reinstalling the whole system again. I found that the disk shortage does not come from gnome but from OpenOffice 1.1 installation. Then, would OpenOffice require a large HDD space? (If it does, how much large?) For your reference, I have partitioned (and labeled) the disk by using Auto Allocation(?) option in FreeBSD disk labeler. Thank you.

Download the .tgz file yourself and install the package manually; or install portupgrade from ports, and then do: portinstall -PP openoffice The -PP enforces to install from package collection only.

Magical HDD Space Doubling! wonky bsdlabel?
The other day I decided to dispose of a drive's worth of WinNT data in order to make more FreeBSD machines in the world (cheer!) In the past I've often used sysinstall for this purpose, so I decided to try the other method suggested by the handbook. I think I got a little funky with bsdlabel, though. Check this out: % dmesg | grep ad GEOM: create disk ad0 dp=0xc5f54660 ad0: 38166MB ST340014A [77545/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA100 GEOM: create disk ad1 dp=0xc5f54360 ad1: 190782MB WDC WD2000JB-00GVA0 [387621/16/63] at ata0-slave UDMA100 GEOM: create disk ad3 dp=0xc6020960 ad3: 38166MB ST340015A [77545/16/63] at ata1-slave UDMA33 Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad0s1a Note that both ad1 and ad3 report 38166 MB disks. Now, the only thing I intended to be different on the new disk (ad3) was that it be dangerously dedicated and have its own /tmp partition (ad1 has tmp on /). However: % df -h FilesystemSize Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/ad0s1a989M 151M 759M17%/ devfs 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100%/dev /dev/ad0s1e34G20G11G66%/usr /dev/ad0s1d 989M 275M 635M30%/var /dev/ad1s1d 180G60G 106G36%/backup /dev/ad3a 36G 614M33G 2%/mnt /dev/ad3b 496M29M 427M 6%/mnt2 /dev/ad3d 989M 273M 637M30%/mnt3 /dev/ad3e 34G20G11G66%/mnt4 So, ad3 is ~72GB?? ... I'd gladly take the extra space, but it can't really be there, can it? Here's the bsdlabel output, and a uname. Can anyone tell me what I did wrong (other than the obvious, being proceeding to use bsdlabel without a thorough handle on what I was doing ... :-o ) % sudo bsdlabel ad0s1 # /dev/ad0s1: 8 partitions: #size offsetfstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 209715204.2BSD 2048 16384 28552 b: 1048576 2097152 swap c: 781561620unused0 0 # raw part, don't edit d: 2097152 31457284.2BSD 2048 16384 28552 e: 72913282 52428804.2BSD 2048 16384 28552 % sudo bsdlabel ad3 # /dev/ad3: 8 partitions: #size offsetfstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 209715204.2BSD 2048 16384 28552 b: 1048576 2097152 swap c: 781653600unused0 0 # raw part, don't edit d: 2097152 31457284.2BSD 2048 16384 28552 e: 72913282 52428804.2BSD 2048 16384 28552 The only difference in the labels is ad3c, which I increased manually (trial error) because bsdlabel kept complaining partition c doesn't cover entire unit until I got up to 78165360 ... %uname -aFreeBSD archangel.daleco.biz 5.2.1-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p3 #2: Fri Apr 23 16:39:28 CDT 2004 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 [Gee, I thought I'd built world since then...] Kevin Kinsey DaleCo, S.P. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
HDD space
Hello all. I have a 120gig drive i'm trying to install freeBSD onto the end of. i have two 51gig windows slices, and one unformatted slice of 10gig. FreeBSD is reporting this as only about 5 gig, after it recommends its own settings. I have tried to set it as per the BIOS, but this doesn't seem to help. Any ideas.

Quinn The advertised 120GB is measured using the marketing standard (those damned marketers) of 1 Kilobyte = 1,000 bytes -- not 1Kilobyte = 1,024 bytes; so you'll never get a full 120GB under any operating system. You can confirm this by reading the small print on various hard drives' retail boxes. It looks like your system is seeing a total of 117GB, which is what I'm getting here.
