So it seems that: make SHAREOWN=harti SHAREGRP=harti INSTALL="sh `pwd`/release/install.sh" \ DESTDIR="/somewhere" installworld almost works. Almost, because bsd.lib.mk contains SHLINSTALLFLAGS += -fschg That case is not handled in install.sh and should probably read SHLINSTALLFLAGS += -f schg Additionally I had to add -fschg) shift;; to install.sh, because it seems that the installworld target uses the currently installed mk files not those from src/share/mk. The SHAREOWN SHAREGRP is needed because share/zoneinfo/Makefile passes these directly to zic. This could probably be fixed by calling zic during buildworld and just install the compiled files during installworld. Thanks for your help, hartihome | help
