Howdy, As the snapshot manager at snapshots.jp.freebsd.org would be aware, current's release building capability is woeful to say the least. A fair bit of tidying up will need to be done for DP2. I've managed to complete a successful release build of current with a checkout of two days ago. For those interested, here's what I had to do: the mfsroot floppy contents were too large FIX: - edit /usr/src/release/i386/drivers.conf and move the following drivers from floppy 2 to floppy3: aue, cue, em, kue, sk, ti, wb, xe, and the SYSV stuff - edit /usr/src/release/scripts/driver-copy2.awk to not error when it encounters the floppy 3 candidates the kern floppy contents were too large FIX: - edit /usr/src/release/i386/dokern.sh and get sed to remove more drivers from MFSROOT. The drivers are: eisa, ahb, isp, ses the fixit floppy contents were too large FIX: - edit /usr/src/release/i386/fixit_crunch.conf and remove the following programs: mount_msdosfs restore rrestore telnet As you can see, all three 1.44MB floppies run out of space. With the above changes, the build just scrapes by. I'd imagine that the changes I made still wouldn't be enough for a release build to be successful for PC98 or Alpha. I'm happy to help resolve the release building issue if anybody is interested.
