>Description: make installworld will fail if you do it as non-root user. I think "make installworld" should warn user about running with non-root UID, and maybe ask for a "Press Y to continue", and should let me install the world correctly, without failing on "permission denied". In the perfect case, such installation would create a script e.g.: perms.sh in $DESTDIR/, so that once booted, I could just do sh /perms.sh and have everything be fixed. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
