In the midst of setting up my laptop (fresh install of 5.6), I found I was out of space on root::
# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/sd1a 1005M 1004M -49.2M 105% / /dev/sd1k 49.2G 1.4G 45.3G 3% /home /dev/sd1d 3.9G 138K 3.7G 0% /tmp /dev/sd1f 2.0G 917M 995M 48% /usr /dev/sd1g 1005M 191M 764M 20% /usr/X11R6 /dev/sd1h 9.8G 1015M 8.4G 11% /usr/local /dev/sd1j 2.0G 2.0K 1.9G 0% /usr/obj /dev/sd1i 2.0G 2.0K 1.9G 0% /usr/src /dev/sd1e 11.2G 9.2M 10.6G 0% /var The culprit: looks to be /dev: # du -sh /dev 938M /dev But I don't understand why /dev would be using so much space? Nothing looks out of place in /dev, but there sure is a lot of files (more than I expected): # ls -l /dev | wc -l 1173 I don't have another OpenBSD system in front of me at the moment for comparison; is this normal? I never thought I would need more than 1GB for root? I guess I need to make a new root partition (2GB this time?) and migrate to that?
