Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk This just happened to me also for 2.1.7 : I had grabbed the ssys.* files from /src for 2.1.7-RELEASE and got exactly the same errors with DST and timezone when trying to recompile the kernel. Any ideas ? Cheers. chas fwiw, actually got 2.1.6 installed but was configuring 2.1.7 kernel source >I tried upgrading my 2.1.6 system to 2.2-GAMMA (primarily to do IP routing and >autodialing under PPP for my home network). It seemed really straightforward >(I'm most impressed with the amount of thought that went into this), except >that I haven't been able to compile a new kernel.
