Folks,
I've used this approach with good success several times in the past:
on machine 1: make world
on machine 2: nfs mount /usr/src and /usr/obj from machine 1
cd /usr/src # nfs mount point from mac. 1
make reinstall
Worked like a charm for me for a build of RELENG_2_2 just two weeks ago.
I cvsup'd just yesterday and did a make world on machine 1 with no
trouble. I then tried to do the make reinstall on machine 2 and
encountered a problem when it processes the contents of /usr/src/lib:
===> lib/libalias
install -C -o bin -g bin -m 444 /usr/bigness/src/lib/libalias/alias.h
/usr/include
install -c -o bin -g bin -m 444 libalias.a /usr/lib
install -c -o bin -g bin -m 444 libalias_p.a /usr/lib
install: libalias_p.a: No such file or directory
*** Error code 71
Stop.
Not to be deterred, I did this (still on machine 2):
cd /usr/src/lib/libalias
make # chews for a moment
make intall # no errors!
cd ../..
make reinstall # let's try again
It gets past the install of lib/libalias, but as it next tries to work on
lib/libc it dies with a similar error, in this case:
install: libc_p.a: No such file or directory
This time, however, my above trick doesn't work. A make in the lib/libc
directory produces this many times repeated:
"/usr/bigness/src/lib/libc/../libc//Makefile.inc", line 16: Missing
dependency operator
"/usr/bigness/src/lib/libc/../libc//Makefile.inc", line 16: Too many
nested if's. 30 max.
Am I doing something wrong or is something unhappily broken? The make
reinstall feature is a _very_ helpful thing for those of us with multiple
boxes.
Thanks,
---
