disklabel autopartitioning (the main issue here) doesn't create /usr/ports anyway. (one of the reasons why I rarely use it myself). and since a few releases, autopartitioning creates a 30GB /usr(!) given enough space, so no point tweaking order now. >> at 171MB free in /usr I wouldn't risk a simple sysupgrade. > > While that's really tight already - cant we just symlink at least > the kernel part in relink?
