I'm sure you know this already, but I just want to reiterate. I have done a make world on Fridays and Saturday's Freebsd 5.0-CURRENT. I did a cvsup in the "wee" hours in the morning. I then did make world in /usr/src to rebuild the system, rebuild kernel, and mergemaster -sv. The system should be clean. Correct me if I am wrong. If I put "option DEVFS" in my kernel , build/install that kernel, my computer will not bot up completely. I will have to enter single user with an errr message stating "/dev: no such file or directory" Mounting of fstab filesystems fails. press enter for /bin/sh My /dev directory exists. Once I rebuild the kernel with no DEVFS it all works, but I like devfs as it makes all the device files that i need for my sound card as an example.
