Content-Type: Text/Plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8Bit X-Mailer-Version: v3.57 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, This weekend I tried to copy over /usr/src from a pc that just finished doing cvsup -- the buildworld/kernel went fine. I did the following: cd /usr/src rm -rf * on the good pc: cd /usr/src tar zcvf usr.src.tar.z * then I ftp'ed that file over to the other pc and extracted it in /usr/src -- it would not build -- would error out after an hour or so. [fresh install of 4.0-R, the good pc is 4.3-S] So, what did I miss that it would not build ? Ever since, I have just fixed that pc to do cvsup, but how can I cvsup one pc, and then just ftp the files over. www.nul.cjb.net www.FreeBSD.org _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
