Rex" To: stable@freebsd.org Subject: LC_TIME=C date Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG My installworld of 4.1.1-STABLE continually fails with this error: "/usr/src/Makefile", line 103: warning: "LC_TIME=C date" returned non-zero status *** Signal 12 I feel rather stuck. I am upgrading from 3.5-STABLE to 4.1.1-STABLE. Everything was proceeding fairly well: I built world, built and installed the kernel new-style, made installed /usr/src/sbin/mknod, rebuilt my /dev entries, made installed /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo/install-info, ldconfig -R /usr/obj/usr/src/lib/libc, but then died in make installworld. Since I haven't rebooted since starting all of this, commands like ps are unavailable because of proc size mismatch. The machine is not local, so I am afraid if I reboot it, It won't come back up. I'll travel out to the machine if need be. Any attempt to make -anything- gives me the same error. Is there some dotfile that it is reading that I could delete and get back to my install (It may not complete, but at least I could get a more informative error. Does it matter that the time is 13 seconds or so off? I can't sync with my a time server, I just get errors. Any clues how I might get this system back running with reinstalling? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Marius M.
