I've had to re-cvsup but still I get this error. Is anyone out there able to tell me where the error is coming from: NB: I've not make any changes to the kernel. I was just going over it (rebuilding the kernel) again to see it it still works with the latest sources. It has worked before though with the same kernel. Could it be something to do with changes after cvsup??? Here is part of the error msg: ## m86pa" {. data section} - "KERNBASE" {*UND* section} at file address 1431 /tmp/ccq4224.s:2447: Error: Subtraction of two symbols in different sections And so many other lines with almost same wording and then ***Error code 1 Stop is /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ALOUETTE. ***Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. ***Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. ##EOM Help highly appreciated. -Wash -- Odhiambo Washington Systems Administrator Inter-Connect Ltd. 3rd Flr The Chancery Valley Rd PO Box 39519 Nairobi Tel: 254 2 711140 Fax: 254 2 718418 Lead, follow, or get out of the way. -Ted Turner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
