Yes, but the one after "make installworld" isn't likely to affect the "make installworld". :-) The sequence of events: mount -u -r / mount -u -r /usr mount /dev/ada0s1a /S1 mount /dev/ada0s1d /S1/usr mount -u -w /S1 mount -u -w /S1/usr ln -fhs /var /S1/var mount -o ro freebeast:/usr/src /usr/src mount -o ro freebeast:/usr/obj /usr/obj id mount cd /usr/src uname -a date make LD=3Dld.lld installkernel DESTDIR=3D/S1 date mergemaster -U -u 0022 -p -D /S1 date rm -fr /S1/usr/include.old date mv -f /S1/usr/include /S1/usr/include.old date rm -fr /S1/usr/share/man date make installworld DESTDIR=3D/S1 date mergemaster -F -U -u 0022 -i -D /S1 date make delete-old DESTDIR=3D/S1 date date df -k date My point was that running "mergemaster -U" against the new image (/S1, in the case above) is not sufficient for "make installworld DESTDIR=3D/S!" to work: it is necessary that the *running* system be aware of the "ntpd" user (I presume, to allow ownership of files to be set by the "ntpd" name, vs. the numeric "123"). Peace, david --=20 David H. Wolfskill david@catwhisker.org Beyond some threshold, should presidential lies become impeachable offenses?
