Hi, my laptop is a very slow beast but this is the only computer I can actually run -CURRENT on. In order to parallelize task, when my laptop is fsck'ing after a panic, I use a collegue's computer on which I have a shell to build the new kernel. Everything works quite well, except that when I install the kernel, install(8) will stop on chown(2) : %%% propane:Z6PO$ make KERNEL=kernel.test DESTDIR=$HOME/export install [...] mkdir -p /home/tataz/export/boot/kernel.test install -p -m 555 -o root -g wheel kernel /home/tataz/export/boot/kernel.test install: /home/tataz/export/boot/kernel.test/kernel: chown/chgrp: Operation not permitted *** Error code 71 Stop in /usr/home/tataz/FreeBSD/CURRENT/src/sys/i386/compile/Z6PO. %%% I thought about adding a flag such as NO_INSTALLCHOWN in both kern.post.mk and kmod.mk. What do you think of the idea ? I saw there are KMODOWN and KMODGRP in kmod.mk, but it seems there is no similar facility in kern.post.mk. Maybe it would be worth having KERNOWN and KERNGRP as well. I can submit a patch if asked. Regards, -- Jeremie Le Hen jeremie@le-hen.org
