I've tried building an OpenBSD release from the 3.7-stable branch a
few times in the last few days, on two different i386 machines, and
both stopped in the same place. I'm following release(8) closely and
not trying to reuse /usr/obj, and dealing with new, clean, complete,
consistent checkouts of the code. The failure comes on step 4, (make
and validate the system release) during the "make release" command in
/usr/src/etc.
Here's a log of the failure. It seems to be working on RAMDISKC:
Ummm - maybe I don't understand but, how can you make a RELEASE from
STABLE? Isnt STABLE following the patch branch? And RELEASE is jsut that
- what's on the CD?
If i'm correct - then you can't do that. If I'm correct, think of it this
way:
RELEASE = what you buy.
STABLE = is what you follow for security patches
CURRENT = is what you run as a developer. It's kinda like a Beta of the
next RELEASE.
