An interesting accident happened while I was building my Nanobsd image
that created /root and all files in /root with ownerships of me!
I have my FreeBSD src tree in subversion, so all files are owned by me.
The image is built as root, so who cares right? Well the following
function cares:
#######################################################################
# Install the stuff under ./Files
cust_install_files () (
cd ${NANO_TOOLS}/Files
find . -print | grep -v /CVS | cpio -dumpv ${NANO_WORLDDIR}
)
Since /Files is in a tree owned by me, I had to recursively chown it
back to root in my build.
so, install_files looks like this now:
#######################################################################
# Install the stuff under ./Files
cust_install_files () (
cd ${NANO_TOOLS}/Files
find . -print | grep -v /CVS | cpio -dumpv ${NANO_WORLDDIR}
chown -R root:wheel ${NANO_WORLDDIR}/root
)
FYI for anyone crazy enough to do this in a method like mine.
