X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.02b7 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: How do I use installworld from a second computer? Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I have a desktop and a laptop but running FBSD 2.2-STABLE. The desktop (ocean) has the full /usr/src tree and is used to build the "world". I used to use "DESTDIR=/island make reinstall" to install world on the laptop. Since make world was split into buildworld and installworld I should be able to install world onto the laptop. HOW? Laptop (island) has the desktop (ocean) NFS mounted ocean:/ on /ocean ocean:/usr on /ocean/usr Desktop (ocean) has the laption (island) NFS mounted island:/ on /island island:/usr on /island/usr Which machine do I need to be on and what is the exact syntax to use with the above information. Thanks, Jim. -- -------------------------------------------+------------------------- James E.
