I'm running -current and would like make my own snapshot with make release. I've looked at the Makefile in /usr/src/release and set the BUILDNAME and CHROOTDIR variables there. I then do a make release which proceeds just fine until it hits the cvs command at which point it gorks as follows: ===> lkm/wcd install -c -o bin -g bin -m 555 wcd_mod.o /usr/local/src/freebsd-3.0-CNL/lkm cd /usr/local/src/freebsd-3.0-CNL/usr && rm -rf src && cvs -d co -P src cvs: invalid option -- P Apparently the CVSROOT environment variable is never set so there is just a blank after "cvs -d" instead of an absolute path name. Does anyone have any clues as to how I to fix this? Thanks much, Tom
