I did a fresh install on 7.1_prerelease, and cvsup -g -L 2 stable-xxx-cvsup-file make buildworld, everything goes as it should. reboot, mergemaster command shows on file "motd" --7.1_PRERELEASE ++7??:??:?? rest of motd is the same now, based on the above showed result, I pressed "d" to keep original version, because I don't want to have a system message shows 7:??:??:?? Now my question is, how do I just compile the "motd" in source tree, and reinstall just that? Maybe recompile it may make it shows proper version string. Or if there's a method beside make buildworld again, it takes ages on my laptop. -- -- l_. (l-l3n
