For several years now I have used the following to buildworld: cd /usr/src rm buildworld.errors rm -rf /usr/obj #make clean make -v cleandir; make -v cleandir date > ./buildworld.time # make -j 5 buildworld >& ./buildworld.errors make -v buildworld >& ./buildworld.errors tail -n 25 /usr/src/buildworld.errors | sendmail huff I know when it started; when it ended, and I have the complete log available in case something went wrong.
