1. Provide larger /, /var, and /tmp partitions (the last increase was in 2001, and we now have both larger hard drives and more space-hungry software.) 2. If there is enough space available, allocate extra space to /var sufficient to store a crash dump. On systems where harddrivesize > 3 * RAMsize + 10GB, the default sizes will now be as follows: swap RAMsize * 2 / 512 MB /tmp 512 MB /var 1024 MB + RAMsize /usr the rest (8GB or more) On systems where harddrivesize > RAMsize / 8 + 2 GB, the default sizes will be in the following ranges, with space allocated proportionally: swap RAMsize / 8 -- RAMsize * 2 / 256 MB -- 512 MB /tmp 128 MB -- 512 MB /var 128 MB -- 1024 MB /usr 1536 MB -- 8192 MB On systems with even less disk space, the existing behaviour is not changed.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
