There must be something wrong at your end. I routinely run make buildworld / make release using -RELEASE sources and never had any problems. Are you sure you are installing *all* the sources, both kernel and world? It could be that something goes wrong during decompression, though I suspect this would happen to other files as well leading to a non-working system. _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
