Which error?

Something like

	make release CHROOTDIR=/usr/release RELEASETAG=RELENG_2_1_0 \
		BUILDNAME=2.1-RELEASE

is supposed to work.  However, right as it stands now, you are
required to have a full CVS tree in order to get it going.

Julian Elischer started to support the creation of seperate install-
ation floppies without the need to do a full release first, but i have
no idea about the status of this project.

(freebsd-scsi was a good list for your information about the driver
support, but is certainly a poor choice for discussion of `make
release'.  Offhand, i don't know about a well-suited one however.)
