What is the time frame on make world. I started make world on my 4.4 BSD box after syncing the source tree with cvsup (wasn't that fun figuring out for the first time) We are now on hour 43 in the process. I know something like this is going to take time ...especially on a 486, but what sort of time frame are we talking? I would have guessed that a modern computer could do this in 4-5 hours and a slow one like mine might take closer to 20 hours...but I seem to be way off. Is this sort of thing measured in days, weeks or months? This is a keyboardless box (something fried on motherboard long ago) that I had to initiate the make world through telnet on a windoze box. If I had know it was going to take this much time I would have telneted from another freebsd box. My windoze machines typically need to be rebooted every few days to clean up memory leaks. I might be in trouble here. If it helps make world is presently compiling ping, ping6 and rlogind as I type this...am I even close to being done? -Jason To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
