According to sysinstall(8), LOAD_CONFIG_FILE If sysinstall is compiled with LOAD_CONFIG_FILE set in the envi- ronment (or in the Makefile) to some value, then that value will be used as the filename to automatically look for and load when sysinstall starts up and with no user interaction required. This option is aimed primarily at large sites who wish to create a single prototype install for multiple machines with largely iden- tical configurations and/or installation options. However, attempt to make release as follows make release BUILDNAME=5.2.1-RELEASE CHROOTDIR=/var/release CVSROOT=/home/ncvs RELEASETAG=RELENG_5_2_1_RELEASE LOAD_CONFIG_FILE="gw.conf" result in the following error: ===> bin ===> bin/cat install -s -o root -g wheel -m 555 cat /var/release/bin install: cat: No such file or directory *** Error code 71 Stop in /usr/src/bin/cat. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src/bin. *** Error code 1 while building release without LOAD_CONFIG_FILE builds just fine. I do not have a 4.X box with enough resources to try the same there; maybe someone could enlighten me? Or I should ask in -current? -- Alex.
