This is it, altough it does not mention bioscall.s explicitly: 20000706: Binutils were updated. In order to build a kernel after this date, you must follow the updating proceedure for building kernels exactly as presented here. You may be able to get away with doing it the old way, but if it breaks, make sure that you've tried the "To build a kernel" section with a fresh /usr/obj first. -- Wilko Bulte http://www.freebsd.org wilko@freebsd.org http://www.nlfug.nl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
