I'd like to make a custom live CD-2 of a -STABLE release (I want to
include the asr-tools on it, so that I can tweak my raid which is
normally running 5.2.1)

I've been doing this from /usr/src/release

  sudo make release CHROOTDIR=/opus/release CVSROOT=/home/ncvs BUILDNAME=GH NODOC=

It runs for a while and finally dies.  The last few things it says are:

    touch release.1
    cd /usr/src/release/../etc && make distrib-dirs DESTDIR=/R/stage/trees/base
    mtree -eU  -f /usr/src/etc/mtree/BSD.root.dist -p /R/stage/trees/base/
    mtree: /R/stage/trees/base/: No such file or directory
    *** Error code 1
    
    Stop in /usr/src/etc.
    *** Error code 1
    
    Stop in /usr/src/release.
    *** Error code 1
    
    Stop in /usr/src/release.

I've added the following symlink (thinking it was a missing factoid):

  (ghost)[1:32pm]release>>ls -l /R
  lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  15 Aug  4 07:31 /R -> /opus/release/R

but still get the same result.

Is this supposed to work?  Am I missing something obvious?
