I've never done it; I just looked it up.
I'm sure there's more information in the archives of the mailing lists,
and you can always try to consult the port maintainer.

They should be inside the compat/linux tree, and therefore accessible.

Um, fix the errors?

a) "man mount_nullfs"
b) I would guess that /compat/linux/etc/{passwd,shadow} need to have
entries to match your /etc/master.passwd. I can't check for sure

Logically, I would think that would apply to compiling *your* code.
Anything that's need to build the port should be handled by the port
itself.

I don't know; all I can tell you is that you seem to be on the right
path here.

Good luck.
