Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I just upgraded a fresh install of 4.2 to CURRENT. Everything seemed to go great until I discovered that I have only a small subset of the standard entries in /dev and there is no /dev/MAKEDEV or /dev/MAKEDEV.local. I re-cvsup'd again this morning and repeated the entire makeworld makekernel installkernel installworld mergemaster cycle a second time. It all went great except that I still have no MAKEDEV in /dev and very few entries in /dev, all of which are dated today. I've tried using 'install' to move /usr/src/etc/MAKEDEV into /dev, and tried cp and mv and even did a 'make distribution' from /usr/src/etc and always get an 'operation not supported' error message. I did all these things in single-user mode, BTW. Second question: what is the status of /stand/sysinstall? I see that the new version is in /usr/sbin. Is the old location obsolete?
