Basically, here is what happened.. Cvsup'd 4-RELENG Backed up my /etc dir cd /usr/src make buildworld - Appeared to be successful make buildkernel - Succeeded. installed the kernel tried to make installworld but stopped, with the ELF thing complaining that that library wasn't recognizable...(trying to remember exactly but can't it seems) Rebooted Tried make installworld again... stopped when trying to install perl tried a make -k installworld... got tons of errors To make a long story short, only about half of the directories that needed compiling, were... or at least they weren't moved to the /usr/obj directory. To get the make installworld to work properly, I had to go into the directories that weren't made and do a make all. Once I manually did this make all in the directories that needed it, the make install world went off without a hitch. here is a list of the dirs that I remember having to compile manually /usr/src/sbin /usr/src/gnu /usr/src/usr.bin /usr/src/usr.sbin /usr/src/libexec /usr/src/release Like I said, once I did the make all in these directories, it seemed to properly move all the appropriate files into the /usr/obj directory for make installworld to work. Somewhere along the way(while searching on dejanews for a fix), I performed an ldconfig /usr/src/lib/libc... not sure when I did this, and I am not sure if it even effected the results but eventually I did get 4.4-STABLE to make installworld successfully. Hope this helps... Todd Florman Part-Time Admin tflorman@nilenet.com From: "Eric L. Howard" To: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: 4.0-R -> 4.4-S via source... Date: Fri, 2 Nov 2001 10:08:46 -0500 I thought the following had been fixed... http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=361779+0+current/freebsd-questions but the backporting didn't work for me on a 4.0-R machine. If I need to do a third sanity check I will...but is anyone else out there still running 4.0-R and having a problem going to 4.4-S via source? ~ELH~ -- Eric L.
