I can see the answer to this is that I shouldn't be building on one machine then installing on another. The build machine should install the files. That just means I have to do weird nfs mounts that I didn't want to do. But I'll explain what I'm doing now. > > Once it finished the installkernel on the ultra 5 didn't work becuase > > it couldn't find some modules it was looking to install.

Here is exactly what I'm doing: chaotic:/usr/src# make TARGET_ARCH=sparc64 buildworld This completes without error and the output can be seen here: http://chaotic.oz.org/other/bsd/buildworld.out.gz (414k gz, 6.3meg txt) solar:/usr/src# make TARGET_ARCH=sparc64 MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX=/usr/obj/sparc64 installworld This is where I get the install not found error. I also have to add the MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX so that it can find the build directory. By default it looks in /usr/obj/ but when you do TARGET_ARCH=sparc64 on i386 machine it puts it in /usr/obj/sparc64/ From the looks of the only the i386 legacy binaries are compiled (the things in /usr/obj/.../src/<platform>/legacy/* so it puts that in the path for installing and doesn't work. Output here: http://chaotic.oz.org/other/bsd/installworld.out.gz (1k gz, 5k txt) Anyway there's my error messages..
