Hi All,
Just joined this list. The last time I used FreeBSD was with 4.6-RELEASE, so
a while ago now. I have just installed 6.0-RELEASE on my old laptop and have
been configuring the system, am onto the kernel at the moment, have followed
the traditional method in the FreeBSD handbook. All works fine (make depends)
Yesterday I installed 6.0-RELEASE from ISO, then used cvsup to upgrade
to 6.0-STABLE. I followed the steps given in /usr/src/Makefile:
1. `cd /usr/src' (or to the directory containing your source tree).
2. `make buildworld'
3. `make buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE' (default is GENERIC).
4. `make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE' (default is GENERIC).
5. `reboot' (in single user mode: boot -s from the loader prompt).
6. `mergemaster -p'
7. `make installworld'
8. `mergemaster'
9. `reboot'
Is this what you did? Can youprovide the precise steps you followed?
Here's what I did:
1. Install from CD (6.0-RELEASE)
2. Got latest kernel src with sysinstall
3. cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
4. Created my own config file (LAPTOP)
5. Did a /usr/sbin/config LAPTOP
6. Moved into compile directory (/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/LAPTOP)
7. Did 'make depend'
8. make
At this point it failed...
This machine has run Linux for the past few months compiling various things.
