Not on either box (unless you mean something that doesn't
show with df). 4.6.2 box:

fun at diva:~ $ df
Filesystem  1K-blocks     Used   Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/ad0s1a  18174862 12049342 4671532    72%    /
/dev/ad3s1   39068576 38828064  240512    99%    /mp3
procfs              4        4       0   100%    /proc

4.8 box:
-bash-2.05b$ df
Filesystem      1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/ad1s1a      56680620  5191946 46954226    10%    /
procfs                  4        4        0   100%    /proc
/dev/ad0s1       13227720  5020460  8207260    38%    /c

BTW, I also looked at the version of linux_base-7 - the 4.8 box
has linux_base-7.1-2, whereas the 4.6.2 box has linux_base-7.1-3!

As a last note: OpenOffice.orf 1.0.3 for Linux installed and worked
perfectly on both systems.
