Liviu Ionescu, did you install 3.0-RELEASE below scenario? First install bin dist files via boot.flp without XFree86, Second reboot and install XFree86 via /stand/sysinstall. I think 3.0-RELEASE installer has permission problem of /usr/X11R6/bin. This problem was already discussed on ports@FreeBSD.ORG mailing list and fixed by Jordan. >Date: Sun, 15 Nov 1998 01:06:21 -0800 (PST) >To: cvs-committers@FreeBSD.ORG, cvs-all@FreeBSD.ORG >Delivered-To: vmailer-cvs-all@freebsd.org > >jkh 1998/11/15 01:06:21 PST > > Modified files: > release/sysinstall config.c dispatch.c dist.c install.c > installUpgrade.c network.c sysinstall.h > tcpip.c > Log: > o Break fixups into binary fixups and XFree86 based fixups. > o Move fixups into extraction routine so all consumers don't have to duplicate > the right behavior. This essential problem is that sysintall use cpio program to extract tarball of XFree86. If tarball has only file entry, does not have directory entry, like this, % tar tzvf XSVGA.tgz -rwxr-xr-x root/wheel 3041251 Sep 28 22:19 1998 bin/XF86_SVGA and there is not bin directory in /usr/X11R6. When extract XSVGA.tgz, cpio program creates bin directory with 700 permission. I think Old XFree86 tarball has directory entry of /usr/X11R6/bin and so on, but current tarball doesn't. Current sysinstall fix permission of these directories. I guess to use GNU tar or extract which is distributed with XFree86.
