OMFG, where is that diskspace going to ..


Ive done a cvsup portupgrade, also used portupgrade to sync all

and now my bsd install is taking almost 5 GIGABYTE



Is it possible to clean some, because im running out of diskspace on this partition ..
else: what is a good tool to resize partitions > fdisk? : )

-edit: its not using 5gb but 6,5gb .. rofl

Hmm, do me a favor...

do all those files have a ,v at the end of them? If that isn't the case... do you have a lot of stuff in ports/distfiles ? Or have you build a lot of stuff without making clean afterwards.

Note: I suspect the first case... but it might be something else.

The portupgrade uses the distfile folder to store the ports code for the upgrade. You can portsclean -CD to clean up the build stuff if you don't need it anymore.

edit:
make that portsclean....
