I skimmed through some of the files, and it looks good. One question about it, though: when I fixed the build process so that non-root builds became possible, I was obliged (by the C-team) to leave the possibility of doing traditional root builds in place. I felt it should be removed entirely as a relic of the past, but there were many who believed that it was important to be able to have a 'complete' image of the system in $ROOT. I gave in, which is why you see OWNER and GROUP and $(CH) in the makefiles. Has that changed? Have the remaining gatestaff given up on the importance of having owner/group in $ROOT match the real system? If so, then that's great to hear. (Oh, and my condolences in advance: by touching this, you're committing yourself to answering every question about building Solaris that anyone ever has. :->) -- James Carlson 42.703N 71.076W <carlsonj at workingcode.com>
