In addition to all of the other comments, there is one more point to make clear; although parallel builds work fine, they obscure the output from the different paths of the build. Therefore, if you have trouble with a "-j" buildworld, the first thing you need to do is to run it again without the "-j". This is not because it might work that way, but because the error messages will be much easier to understand. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
