I fairly often do make installs over amd+nfs, a few gotchas to avoid getting caught on: - I saw my link count break in /rescue so du exploded (up by presumably about (137-1 x 4.7M ) (Cant remember why, I just fixed it) - Chflags bit me (maybe I didnt have the right stuff in /etc/exports on target. (I hate chflags. & often run chflags -R noschg / ) - If both might be i386, & target might < 686 eg 586 etc avoid source host having any files lurking in /usr/obj that were built while /etc/make.conf (& included files) had a CFLAGS += -march=i686 Maybe practice on a local host first, where you can reach reset knob.
