References: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Uli, I don't understand what you mean "...installing the sources, before I enter them." Take a look at your / directory. In it, you will find a subdirectory called sys. If you long list (ll) the root directory (/), you'll see that sys is actually a symbolic link to /usr/src/sys. I also assume that you have no problem getting into it with a cd command, but I can't!
