Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I had a request to check a problem by building on a -current kernel on my -stable test system. while I have the disk space to install kernel, it had to go on the second hard drive partition, which in my case is wd2s2. For the record, the kernel gets really pissed off when you try this and it can't find root. I don't know if it's because there is a second FreeBSD slice on the disk (wd2s3), no wd1, or what. I'm trying to work through it with a build of the kernel on the -stable side. I mounted the -current root and -current /usr (as /current/root and /current/usr), and added -I/current/usr/include to the Makefile. Should this work? I'm using the -stable config, Make, and gcc -- I tweaked the i386.options to make NPX Standard ... -- Drew Derbyshire UUPC/extended e-mail: software@kew.com Telephone: 617-279-9812 AAAAAA - American Association Against Acronym Abuse Anonymous.
