Michael Alwan scribbled this message on Oct 31: This is a reminder to the people on the other lists... If you want to run -current, you NEED to be subscribe to freebsd-current... This is where all the problems are discussed... > Another mystery that causes a non-critical error is the tag in /i386/conf > Makefile.i386 for a certain version of config: > > ># Which version of config(8) is required. > >%VERSREQ= 300002 > > The command "/usr/sbin/config GENERIC" gives this warning (but creates the > kernel build directory): this means you need to rebuild config, this was suppose to prevent people from making the same mistake you did... [...] > I'll try new kernel sources later. Should I be discussing this on another > mailing list, or should I just keep trying until I get something that works? > Should I try to make world first? you need to read -current... I'm almost postitive that Joerg posted a warning about this to -current in reply to his commit message warning people that rebuilding config is neccessary... also.. reciently Mike Smith was nice enough to post his "Keeping -current w/ FreeBSD" document too.... -- John-Mark Gurney Modem/FAX: +1 541 683 6954 Cu Networking Live in Peace, destroy Micro$oft, support free software, run FreeBSD
