Or use cvsup to automatically download the missing files and directories. Would be easiest to use cvsup to bring your sources up to a current release. Same as one would do to restore /usr/src from CD, one can get a fresh copy of the tarballs from one of the FreeBSD mirrors. For 6.2 download all of: /pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/6.2-RELEASE/src Then simply untar them into /usr/src. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@HiWAAY.net ======================================================================== Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad.
