[philo_neo71]

hi,
I have intalled openbsd 5,6, gnome3 on Intel Q6600 quad cores,
before i have installed the ports's user (/usr/ports/), when i go to the mysql directory and do make command, the output said me "write failed, file system is full", how to use dynamical allocation of space hardrive for this diretory /usr/ports/.

# cd mysql
# ls
CVS      Makefile distinfo patches  pkg
# make 
===> mysql-client-5.1.73v0 depends on: metaauto-* - not found
===>  Verifying install for metaauto-* in devel/metaauto

/usr: write failed, file system is full

See growfs(8) but make sure you've totally read and understood it before continuing (i.e. back up all your data, etc.).
But you should not be using ports if you are on a release. You should be using packages. See pkg_add(1).

Default partitions are not suitable for port builds. That is indeed an annoying thing. Two ways around the problem. One is custom partition which is as you know time consuming or another thing. I typically just delete /home partition from the default allocation by OpenBSD installer and create very large /usr/ports partition and then recreate very large home partition. Another work around is to adjust /etc/mk.conf so that home partition is used for builds.

Because the only people who should be using ports are people who actively work on ports or people who really know what they're doing. Default partitions are designed for just that: the defaults. Which means using packages and not ports.
