im trying to installworld on a machine that is having its first update. buildworld and kernel completed without any errors, and installkernel seemed just fine. however, when i installworld, this is the error i get:phoenix# make installworld mkdir -p /tmp/install.7QbDbVE1 for prog in [ awk cap_mkdb cat chflags chmod chown date echo egrep find grep install-info ln lockf make mkdir mtree mv pwd_mkdb rm sed sh sysctl test true uname wc zic; do cp `which $prog` /tmp/install.7QbDbVE1; done cd /usr/src; MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX=/usr/obj MACHINE_ARCH=i386 MACHINE=i386 CPUTYPE= GROFF_BIN_PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/bin GROFF_FONT_PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/share/groff_font GROFF_TMAC_PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/share/tmac PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/sbin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/bin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/games:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/sbin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/bin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/games:/tmp/install.7QbDbVE1 /usr/obj/usr/src/make.i386/make -f Makefile.inc1 reinstall awk: Permission denied "/usr/src/Makefile.inc1", line 101: warning: "awk '/^#define[[:space:]]*__FreeBSD_version/ { print $3 }' /usr/include/osreldate.h" returned non-zero status echo:Permission denied *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. the machine is: phoenix# uname -a FreeBSD phoenix 6.2-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p1 #1: Sat Feb 10 11:15:11 EST 2007 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/PHOENIX i386 ...but i believe its an AMD64 running i386. obivously, this was done once successfully, but it was done by my partner (but following my directions). i will note, that i am doing it in full multiuser mode, and not in single user (as the cannonical method dictates), but at this point, im not totally sure my current mode is where my problem lies. can anyone help decipher this error message?
It looks like the installworld fails because of some permissions issue (see the several permissions denied messages just before the stop errors). Either: 1) You did not become root when you were attempting to do this, 2) Some of your binaries had the system immutable flags set, 3) Some other crazy stuff going on. I have heard Dan Langille say that he could do an installworld without dropping down to single user before (he wrote a tutorial on www.freebsddiary.org where he talked about buildworld on a fast box and installworld on a slow box). But just so that we can compare apples to apples, you should try doing it in single-user mode to start.
