Dear All;

Hi, everytime I try and run cvsup, it completes fine. But when I do the
following steps to compile and load the soruce it gets corrupted some how.
It downloads the required information using the following cvsupfile.

I'm going to take you from the way I install to when I do my cvsup and then
try and compile and load.

I install freebsd, it complete sucessfully.

I reboot.

From root I go to /usr/src/sys/i386/conf

cp GENERIC SYSTEM

edit SYSTEM

to reflect my smp paraemeters.

save and exit.

cd /usr/src

make buildkernel KERNCONF=SYSETM
make installkernel KERNCONF=SYSTEM
sync

reboot

Then I create my cvsupfile

Here is my cvsupfile:

*default host=cvsup2.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4
*default delete use-rel-suffix
src-all
ports-all tag=.
doc-all tag=.

It downloads the source.

thenn i goto cd /usr/src

make buildworld

if that completes, sometimes it crashes

I then go to cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf

cp GENERIC SYSTEM

edit SYSTEM

to reflect my smp paraemeters.

save and exit.

cd /usr/src

make buildkernel KERNCONF=SYSETM
make installkernel KERNCONF=SYSTEM

sync

reboot to single user mode.

boot -s,
fsck -p
mount -u /
mount -a
cd /usr/src
make installworld

if that completes that and I reboot and do a:
uname -a

It never seems to update the name to the current stable release.

What am i doing wrong. Could someone please provide a complete & proven way
to do this that also has smp. As well as a cron script that does it for me
automatically. I would be enternally grateful.

Again Thanks In Advance

Brian
