>Number: 3024 >Category: misc >Synopsis: make reinstall in /usr/src requires writable /usr/obj >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-bugs >State: open >Class: change-request >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Tue Mar 18 10:00:02 PST 1997 >Last-Modified: >Originator: Nick Sayer >Organization: just me >Release: FreeBSD 2.2-RELEASE i386 >Environment: 2.2-RELEASE 'make world' performed on machine A, 2.2-mumble on machine B. B NFS mounts A and 'make reinstall' done on B. >Description: In order to succeed, a 'make reinstall' requires recreating osreleasedate.h (or some such). This requires that /usr/obj be mounted R/W with maproot=root else the make reinstall fails quite early on with either EROFS or EPERM. >How-To-Repeat: 2.2-RELEASE 'make world' performed on machine A, 2.2-mumble on machine B. B NFS mounts A and 'make reinstall' done on B. >Fix: make reinstall should not have to fondle osrelease.h or osreldate.h or whatever file it was. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
