Hi,

I notice installworld when /usr/src is read-only is broken:

===> include
creating osreldate.h from newvers.sh
setvar PARAMFILE /usr/src/include/../sys/sys/param.h;  .
/usr/src/include/../sys/conf/newvers.sh;                        echo
"$COPYRIGHT" > osreldate.h; echo "#ifdef _KERNEL" >> osreldate.h;
echo '#error "osreldate.h must not be used in the kernel, use
sys/param.h"' >> osreldate.h;  echo "#else" >> osreldate.h;
echo \#'undef __FreeBSD_version' >> osreldate.h;        echo \#'define
__FreeBSD_version' $RELDATE >> osreldate.h;  echo "#endif" >> osreldate.h
/usr/src/include/../sys/conf/newvers.sh: cannot create version: read-only
file system
*** Error code 2

Stop in /usr/src/include.
*** Error code 1


This is meant to work isn't it? Is there a trick? I thought I'd done it
before but I can't actuall remember when...

Thanks,

Andrew
