Make sure you do a "make SHARED=copies install" otherwise "install" will just install a bunch of symlinks for stuff, which isn't good, if it is just a temporary NFS mount. I don't like how "make install" requires write access. I'd very much like to make /usr/src and /usr/obj mountable from anywhere, but read-only, for easy, on-the-fly upgrades of systems. Tom
