Anybody in the Western US? Error code 1 is what make reports when a command fails. You need to log the build process, and go backwards through the string of "error code 1s" until you find the command that originall failed. That should also have information about what's going on. > When I get all those errors, what do I need to do to "clean house" for > the next try? I've learned the hard way that is essential too.

To be absolutely safe, do a "make clean" in the COMPILE directory after you do the "config", but before you do the "make depend". > PLEASE !!

That's SOP here. <mike -- Mike Meyer <mwm@mired.org> http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
