I unpacked a freebsd 1.1 cdrom into a subdirectory and after kldloading the aout module, chroot'd into it.. things worked fine for a while then it all hung.. apparrently programs in 1.1 can not handle that the PID can go past 32767 now.. 'wait()' for example fails.. ok , so recompile my kenrel with PID_MAX set to 30000 and try again.. all works fine.. I'm tempted to make PID_MAX a tunable or a sysctl.. I think that some compatibility modes may have teh same problems (though I doubt that many people use anything other than Linux compatibility) on my 500 MHz laptop a GENERICAH kernel builds in 34 seconds including the make depend :-) but if I do: cd /usr/src make world I get: jules# make world cd /usr/src/etc; make distrib-dirs mtree -u -f mtree/BSD.root.dist -p / extra: . missing: sys missing: dev (not created: File exists) missing: dev/fd (not created: File exists) missing: etc (not created: File exists) missing: etc/config (not created: File exists) [...] proceeds as per normal (from memory) until: it tries to make the obj symlinks. then it all blows up.. does anyone remember if there was an extra step we used to have to do? did we have to have a populated /usr/obj to start with? if so where did we get it from?
