I have two 3.1-RELEASE boxes.
I successfully upgraded one of them to 3.3-STABLE, following the tutorial instructions
by Nik Clayton.
When I try do do the same on the other one, it compiles for a long while, then the
/usr partition fills up.
I deleted the /usr/obj directory, the /usr/ports directory, and symlinked /tmp ->
/var/tmp
Still, before make buildworld, I start with:
(3.1-RELEASE box)
$ df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/wd0s1a 31743 19580 9624 67% /
/dev/wd0s1f 1080887 852993 141424 86% /usr
/dev/wd0s1e 29751 7629 19742 28% /var
procfs 4 4 0 100% /proc
which seems to be too little disk space on /usr for an upgrade?
On the other box (3.3-STABLE), I also deleted the /usr/obj and the /usr/ports
directories, but there are more packages installed on that box. Still, I'm left with
significantly more disk space:
(3.3-STABLE box)
$ df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/wd0s1a 31743 24758 4446 85% /
/dev/wd0s1f 1107925 737998 281293 72% /usr
/dev/wd0s1e 29751 12051 15320 44% /var
procfs 4 4 0 100% /proc
So, where do I start to look for obsolete files, or files that I can safely remove
without doing any harm on the 3.1-RELEASE box?
Does the make buildworld create other temporary files which are needed to remove
before giving it a new try?
Any suggestions are appreciated.
