I'm using FreeBSD 5.1 and I created the config file to use with CVSup from the Handbook. Below is my config file: *default tag=. *default host=cvsup.uk.FreeBSD.org *default prefix=/usr *default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup *default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress src-all Many thanks Mark ----Original Message Follows---- "Mark Luxton" writes: > I'm new to FreeBSD and this is my first attempt at building a kernel. > > I would like to know if I am going about it the right way (and some > help on an error message that appears). > > Below are the steps that I am currently taking.

That file doesn't exist on my (4.x, i.e., -STABLE) system. What version are you running, and what version did you cvsup? _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" _________________________________________________________________ Use MSN Messenger to send music and pics to your friends http://www.msn.co.uk/messenger
