There *must* be make installworld dependancies outside of the /usr/src and /usr/obj filesystems. Pulling an installworld (or install for that matter) from a remote machine's /usr/src/ and /usr/obj is broken. Pushing an installworld to the target machine by mounting it's filesystem is working. That tells me there's something necessary but unavailable when you try to make installworld from the older box. I have these remote mounted from a remote machine, which can't seem to find everything when it attempts most make targets. If I run the installworld from the master, with DESTDIR=/mnt which is a nfsmount of the target machine, ...well I'm *way* into the install process, into the usr.sbin stuff, well past the libraries that used to fail to install about 1 minute through. I'm not asking "what to do." I want to understand what's going on here. I manually copied the /etc/make.conf and /usr/share/mk/* to the distribution target, and it didn't affect my results when running make installworld from the target machine. Was make on the target machine out of sync with the makefiles in the 08-18 STABLE tree? -- PLEASE NOTICE: THERE MAY BE NOSPAM IN THE HEADERS WHEN YOU HIT "REPLY"!!!
