Dear Michael G., the problem has probably been caused by cvsup after the recent softupdates commit; which change has recently been discussed in this forum. If you track -stable, always read the related letters (or browse the arcives :-) AFAIR, the workaround consisted in removing the two softupdates links and cvsupping [again]; this operation would fetch the actual softupdates code. Hmm, I am not sure what is the best strategy at this stage. I don't know what might happen if you first issued a make installworld -k (or -i) ... Probably, you need to fetch the two softupdates files (softdep.h and ffs_softdep.c), and I am afraid you have to repeat the process. If you like, I could send you both files. I last cvsupped 4.0-STABLE on June, 24; you are running 4-STABLE right ? By the way, as Giorgios Keramidas pointed out few days ago, you may wish to try a **test** installworld e.g. by specifying DESTDIR=/usr/some_test_directory.
