When I try to buildworld top just shows make sitting there like so: 34791 root 1 8 0 608K 496K wait 0:00 0.00% make I expect make will sit there as long as I feel like letting it go. I tried truss but I got an error that it couldn't open /proc/somepid & ptrace doesn't seem to exist on my system. I was able to use ktrace so I have a ktrace.out file, but I don't really know what I'm looking at when I view it with kdump. What's really extra special weird is that I re-installed the box to 6.0-Beta4 & I was able to run "make buildworld" after I rebooted. Then I cvsup'ed and now I can't buildworld again. Any suggestions where I might find somebody who can look at my ktrace.out file? -Will _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
