Hi,

I'm trying to update a FreeBSD 5.2.1 on a SUN NETRA T1 server.

At first, i installed a SNAPSHOT of FreeBSD 5 :

It was a success:

quasar# uname -a
FreeBSD quasar SNAP-20040612 FreeBSD SNAP-20040612 #0: Mon Jun 14 =
07:25:37
UTC 2004     root@bobbi.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC
sparc64


Then, i updated source tree with CVSUP and compiled a new userland and
kernel:

1) quasar# cd /usr/src
2) quasar# make buildworld

=3D> no problem. (very long)

3) quasar # make buildkernel KERNCONF=3DQUASAR
(QUASAR is the same file as GENERIC; i only change the name)

=3D> no problem

4) quasar # make installkernel KERNCONF=3DQUASAR

=3D> no problem

5) reboot

new kernel is OK:

FreeBSD quasar.fr.colt.net 5.2.1-RELEASE-p9 FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p9 #0: =

root@quasar.heb.fr.colt.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/QUASAR  sparc64


6) quasar# mergemaster -p

=3D> no problem

7)  quasar# make installworld

=3D> problem:

=3D=3D=3D> share/zoneinfo
umask 022; cd /usr/src/share/zoneinfo;  zic -D -d /usr/share/zoneinfo -p

I tried to CVSUP my source TODAY and to try again :-)

No success, i ve only a new kernel:

quasar# uname -a
FreeBSD quasar.fr.colt.net 5.2.1-RELEASE-p9 FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p9 #1: =
Sat
Aug 21 12:45:10 CEST 2004
root@quasar.fr.colt.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/QUASAR  sparc64

And i've the SAME error.

Finally, I forced the installworld by "make -i installworld"

i've no crash but i d like to not be insane like that.

Thanks in advance to show me on the good way.

Nicolas
