What is the > correct way to build and install all of /stand? As part of the release process. It's a bit tricky. :) In current sysinstall has moved to src/usr.sbin/sysinstall and lives in /usr/sbin/sysinstall since it's just another program. /stand is basically copied off the boot floppy or CD during the installation process. It's meant to basically be a safety net in case you hose your filesystem so badly you don't have /bin/sh, etc. -- John Baldwin <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
