I have a 10gb HD.
I use my Gentoo desktop for development (mainly php) and home use (video, mp3, internet yadda, yadda, yadda).

"emerge --info" result
Code:

korn ~ # emerge --info

My disk usage
Code:

korn ~ # df -h
Sist. Arq.            Tam   Usad Disp    Uso% Montado em
/dev/hda3          3,3G  2,6G  715M  79%    /
/dev/hda4          5,4G  5,0G  404M  93%    /home
none                  110M     0   110M   0%     /dev/shm


When I try to "emerge --update --newuse system && emerge --newuse --deep --update world" I become without disk space.

Could anybody help me improve my disk space usage?

zayhen,

Unless you have cleaned out /usr/portage/distfiles, all the source code you have ever downloaded is still there. When you do emerge, this where new source packages are stored.
You can delete the entire content of /usr/portage/distfiles as anything that is needed will be feteched again.

Portage builds things in /var/tmp There will be a large number of small files here indicating the success of various builds. Failed ebuilds will leave a lot more behind.

All this takes up space on your root partition.
