That should not be the case. /usr/src shouldn't itself be a dependency, and /usr/obj should be relocatable by setting MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX to the appropriate place. I *think* this means that the poster should have been able to make this work by something like: # cd /mnt/src # make MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX=/mnt/obj installworld although I haven't tested it to be sure I haven't missed something obvious. The original poster didn't give any details on the versions of FreeBSD involved, but I suspect that he also has missed the changes in recommended upgrade methods. Reading /usr/src/UPDATING would be advisable in that case. Be well. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
