Greetings, I'm having some hard time getting a machine upgraded from 3.3-stable to 4-stable. src/UPDATING says I would have to recompile the kernel before trying to make world (my system was built before the S-day). However, when I try to compile the kernel (and modules), by doing `make kernel' in src, I get two types of errors: * -mpreferred-stack-boundary, used in bsd.kern.mk, is unrecognized by the compiler installed in the system. This can be worked around by commenting out the offending option from bsd.kern.mk. * Then, while compiling sys/i386/i386/bioscall.s, as complains it has seen an invalid x86 assembler instruction on the *standard input* (i.e. does not say exactly where it has). Judging from the above, it seems that the system compiler has to be upgraded first (i.e. make depend all install in src/gnu/usr.bin/cc and src/gnu/usr.bin/binutils/as at least). But, as said above, my system was built before the S-day, so I'm afraid if there'd be any side effect caused by doing so. Could anyone shed a light on this?
