I'm currently trying to build CURRENT (DEC 29 2002) within a chroot environment under CURRENT (DEC 17 2002). Presently I am stuck on an error which appears to be related to /dev/stdout in a chroot environment (devfs?).
Specifically writing to /dev/stdout does not work (specifically: genassym.sh). For example (my default shell is tcsh, chroot directory is "chroot"): bugs.ttyp0% sudo chroot chroot # echo "test" > /dev/stdout # echo "test" > /dev/tty # echo "test" > /dev/fd/1 # As you can see none of these result in test written to the shell. Additionally /bin/sh sounds off if specifically started in place of tcsh: bugs.ttyp0% sudo chroot chroot /bin/sh sh: can't access tty; job control turned off In the chroot environment /dev looks to be broken when compared to the /dev system in the hosting environment: bugs.ttyp0% devnum chroot/dev/fd/1 chroot/dev/fd/1: dev = 4/11 bugs.ttyp0% devnum /dev/fd/1 /dev/fd/1: dev = 255/67108864 (character) rdev = 22/1 I'm not sure whether this is the result something that I have done incorrectly, or if it is a bug. I have made a cursory look at jail, but it appears to be _overkill_ for the task. -- Marc Butler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
