After some research alot of people suggest this might be a hardware problem (even though the box has run solid for over a year with no reboots!).. in any case I was wondering if there are any problems with building the freebsd sources under slackware? Then just copying over the binaries (/usr/obj) and then installing them, anyone know if this should work? Thanks! btw: i did try it but it failed right away. I may have to tweak something but just wonderin if this will work at all.. slackware output... root@lisa:/files/tmp2/usr/src# : [/files/tmp2/usr/src]$ make buildworld Makefile:137: *** missing separator.
