OK, i finally found a machine that could get a "make release" halfways through. It still fell over when making the documentation since the distfile for links-0.96 failed checksum mismatch. :( (Also, something i've seen consistently failing only within a "make release" on both -stable and -current is ports/graphics/tiff not linking their binaries against -lm. I'll investigate that a bit more, and clarify with sobomax directly.) So in the end, i'm afraid the size of my generated floppies isn't fully represantative due to some text files missing on it. So in addition to preparing the floppies, i've compared the mfsroot sizes against the one from 4.5-RC3: 4.5-RC3: uriah # ls -l /mnt/stand/boot_crunch -r-xr-xr-x 32 root wheel - 1900676 Jan 18 06:55 /mnt/stand/boot_crunch* uriah # df -ki /mnt Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity iused ifree %iused Mounted on /dev/md0 2803 2123 652 77% 73 309 19% /mnt My version that includes the minimalistic camcontrol: uriah # ls -l /mnt/stand/boot_crunch -r-xr-xr-x 33 root wheel - 1913568 Jan 20 23:44 /mnt/stand/boot_crunch* uriah # df -ki /mnt Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity iused ifree %iused Mounted on /dev/md0 4219 2084 2093 50% 74 500 13% /mnt If anyone wants to test, the images are at http://people.freebsd.org/~joerg/kern.flp http://people.freebsd.org/~joerg/mfsroot.flp I've just tested all on an old Thinkpad 755 plus Adaptec PCMCIA card, and i could install that one off an attached CD-ROM. -- cheers, J"org .-.-. --... ...-- -.. .
