I'm somewhat perturbed and feeling like somebody is laughing at me or at
all of us.
It used to be fairly easy to install FBSD, but now it seems to be an
incredibly complicated task. I have installed and reinstalled a
number of distributions from FBSD 4 or earlier up to the present 7.0.
It used to be sysctl would install the minimal system and then I would
add the necessary programs and build a custom kernel. It was time
consuming but hardly problematic.
Now, I am trying to build another fresh install of v.7.0 and guess
what, I am doing it on an identical motherboard with the the same
peripherals as another box with the only differences being a cpu of 3ghz
on the older box and 2.4 on the new one (both Pentium 4) and slightly
different HDDs.
I did exactly the same on all installations but now, as previously and
according to the Handbook, make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL stops with
errors.
I tried the conf MYKERNEL opption and all it did was point me to the
compile directory and said not to forget to do make cleandepend && make
depend. A little strange, that, never had that happen before... but, ok,
did it. then ran make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL and, surprise ! same
shit.
Now, let me mention that I had previously installed 7.0 on the problem
computer with no problem then decided I did not need it and got rid of
it, that is, cleaned the disk and used it to store files.I now
reconfigured the computer and set it up with 4 disks - 2 80Gb configured
as Raid1 (mirror) and bootable. Works fine when FBSD installed. Other
disks not configured or used yet. I installed the minimal system, did
portsnap extract, installed bash and cvsup-without-gui, set up the
ports-supfile and the standard-supfile; did cvsup -g -L 2
standard-supfile and retrived the source files, all of them.I then
edited :MYKERNEL and started the make buildkernel process.
wait...wait...wait..
terminates with
linking kernel
uvscom.o (.text+0x293): In function 'uvscom_attach' ;
:undefined reference to 'ucom_attach' etc.....
*** Error code 1
did I do something wrong? system is still on and functioning but how do
I make the custom kernel?
this is my kernel file:
