Out of disk space?
Hi
I'm trying to install gcc and the installation program tells me that I'm out of disk space! I have just installed the os (using the default settings for partitions and sizes) and have only installed apache on the machine. Can it really be out of disk space already?
How do I check how much space is left on each partition? Can I change the sizes on the partitions?
My computer is a Sun Ultra 5 with Solaris 8
This is what it looked like when I tried to install gcc:
# pkgadd -d gcc-3.0.1-sol8-sparc-local
The following packages are available:
1 SMCgcc301 gcc
(sparc) 3.0.1
Select package(s) you wish to process (or 'all' to process
all packages). (default: all) [?,??,q]:
Processing package instance <SMCgcc301> from </usr/anwi/dl/gcc-3.0.1-sol8-sparc-
local>
