At 7:00 AM this morning, I began to re-install 4.8-RELEASE. Installed as usual, removed unnecessary drivers, FTP from default site, installed cvsup-without-gui and portupgrade from packages.
After installation finished, I configured my /etc/cvsupfile and cvsup'ed src-all, ports, and docs. I copied /etc/defaults/make.conf to /etc/make.conf and uncommented the following lines: CFLAGS= -O -pipe NOPROFILE= true USA_RESIDENT= yes cd /usr/src make buildworld (drat, I should have done make -j4 buildworld!) After that finished, I copied my saved CUSTOM kernel config to /usr/src/sys/i386/conf make buildkernel KERNCONF=CUSTOM make installkernel KERNCONF=CUSTOM make installworld Cp -Rr /etc /etc.old /usr/sbin/mergemaster -v -w 132 (132 is not correct, screen width is 80) Cd /dev ./MAKEDEV all Cd /usr/src/release/sysinstall Make clean Make install Reboot! At 1:30 PM.... Yea.....!!! FreeBSD 4.8-p3 No errors at all during compile, system seems to work properly! Now fiddling with portupgrade. Thanks again to all who responded so unselfishly!
