Hi all, Apologies in advance for what might be a dumb question - but I have = searched Readmes, UPDATE, Handbook, FAQ, Google, without finding the = answer ... In FreeBSD 4, there was a /etc/defaults/make.conf; and a /etc/make.conf = with my own make overrides. But when I install FreeBSD 5.2.1, there is no make.conf in the = /etc/defaults directory. Also, /etc/make.conf only contains a couple of = lines; nothing about CFLAGS, CPUTYPE, MASTERSORTREGEX etc. Was there a deliberate design change in 5.x to remove the default = make.conf? And if so, can I just use a make.conf from one of my 4.x = boxes copied to /etc/make.conf? Or should I now specify my make = over-rides in some new way? Many thanks for any guidance! Andrew
