cleanup freeBSD
hi
I'd like to upgrade my freeBSD according to:
http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2007...n-upgrade.html
to freeBSD 6.3, but my 6.2-RELEASE-p9 seems to be full:
Code:
# df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/ad0s1a 507630 506204 -39184 108% /
devfs 1 1 0 100% /dev
/dev/ad0s1e 495726 14 456054 0% /tmp
/dev/ad0s1f 10965486 5859070 4229178 58% /usr
/dev/ad0s1d 5948558 993076 4479598 18% /var
linprocfs 4 4 0 100% /usr/compat/linux/proc
I'm getting these errors:
Code:
# sh freebsd-update.sh -f freebsd-update.conf -r 6.3-RELEASE upgrade

The following components of FreeBSD do not seem to be installed:

Attempting to automatically merge changes in files... done.
The following file will be removed, as it no longer exists in
FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE: /etc/defaults/devfs.rules
Does this look reasonable (y/n)?
howto cleanup freeBSD and find out unneeded files from other freebsd-update.sh upgrades ? |

Hi, sorry about that. I had posted a friendly but smartass remark about how this is a Linux forum. I had never noticed the "other *nix" forum on this site. I always just go to the "0 reply" threads. 
I would have deleted my post altogether if I could have.
I'm sorry. Good luck with your FreeBSD issue. I'd help if I could, but I haven't run FreeBSD since before 2000.

Oh, have you tried freeing up some space on / ? I've noticed that 3D games, openoffice, and java take up the most space on my /. You could just get rid of a few larger programs on / just to find the room to upgrade, then see what you can remove/add later.
