Salutations!

So I'm journeying over to the red side from Linux. I initially got FreeBSD and made a bootable USB however I was unable to install any desktop enviroment due to some form of error. So instead I got PCBSD which comes with several envrioments pre-installed. Since it's the live USB version it comes with out the collection of ports that I need I will have to fetch them.

I tried doing such with portsnap fetch however was greeted with a No space left on device message. Upon looking it turns on my filesystem takes up nine gigabyte leaving only 7MB left. The df command output is
pcbsd# df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/ufs/ROOTFS 27132 26588 -1624 107% /

/dev/da2s1a 3816164 2153616 1357256 61% /media/PCBSDUSBLIVE


How do I make more room available so I can download the entire ports collection?

Edit: I was thinking you needed to install to the HD before populating your ports tree but was wrong about that.

It's approximately 67 MB to download but once you extract it takes up more space, so you may need to install to your HD after all.

The correct command to do so is:

portsnap fetch extract
