And if there is a way to produce the correct FreeBSD binaries on Linux, remember the "make world" relies on some file outside /usr/src and /usr/obj (I know of /etc/make.conf at least but I'm sure there are others). Can't you just swap the hard disks for the time? ;) cu, Oliver To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
