Re: 4.5-PRERELEASE: VIA chases again...
I had similar symptoms on a laptop. It was running Windows 95, but I think it still applies. Format and re-install fixed it for 2-3 months, then bad sectors left and right. Turns out the hard drive was failing.

make: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
I am trying to update my 4.5-stable system, and I keep getting the
error "make: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected" I try to run "make
cleandir" and it fails with that error message. Any of the other
make commands that are executed in the /usr/src directory fail the
exact same way. I have deleted all of /usr/src, and re cvsup'd, with
same results. Been like this for about 10 days. I think I changed
my make.conf, but I copied the one from /usr/src/etc/defaults to
/etc/defaults. Dmesg, and my build script are at
[http://www.theapt.org/freebsd.html] I'm fairly certain I messed up
a config file or two, but I don't know what files I messed up.

Re: make: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
It looks like the make executable is bunk. I am using bsd make, not
gmake. Now I need to generate make w/o make. (yay!)

make buildworld broken at fortune
I am trying to do a make buildworld, and it keeps crapping out while making boot strap tools, something about rcsfreeze. I have had this problem for 2 weeks or so, so I highly doubt it's a tree issue. For those of you playing at home, I am the one who had problems with bsd-make recently. Details are at [http://www.theapt.org/fortune.html]. (I've already deleted /usr/src and re-cvsup'd, so I know it's not a bad cvs merge) Any help would be great. -- To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
