Garbled kernel messages on shutdown

Ah, so that's what causes that.

Re: FBSD 5-CURRENT: Kernel Makefile.inc1 Error
Thus spake Garance A Drosihn ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) [06/12/03 03:31]: From the above description, it sounds like you are running on a 5.1 system, and you are trying to compile a 5.2 kernel. Is this true? If the system you are on is 5.1, then you are going to have to do a 'make buildworld' of the 5.2-source before you can do a 'make buildkernel' of a 5.2 kernel. It's not clear from what you're saying, but will this cause problems with the statfs stuff? I've been under the impression that a 5.1-5.2 upgrade requires me to build and boot a new kernel before I can install a new world -- it's not clear if you're saying I need to build /and install/ a new world before building a kernel, or if I just need to build world... - Damian ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

My comments were not trying to cover the installation steps. All I said was that you have to do a BUILDworld before you do a BUILDkernel, because it sounded to me like you might have been building a 5.2 kernel without doing any matching buildworld. And my request for clarification was as a result of you not mentioning any of the install steps -- I (having recently botched a 5.1-5.2-BETA upgrade) didn't know if you were /insinuating/ an installworld, or if you left it out because it wasn't to be done. Hence my request. But this has all been cleared up now -- thanks. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thus spake Michael Edenfield ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) [08/12/03 17:28]: with a 5.2 /usr/src: * make buildworld * make buildkernel * make installkernel * reboot to single-user * make installkernel * mergemaster * reboot I think you want that second 'installkernel' to actually be an 'installkernel'. The issue is, your kernel will continue handing out old file system structures until you reboot with a new one. Rather early in the installworld process, you will stop being able to use fundamental system commands like ls and cp, which expect the new structures. According to the posts by Mr. McKusick, the new kernel should be able to understand both the old and the new structures -- so cp should *not* break. So long as you follow his instructions, and reboot with the new kernel before doing the installworld. Also, a small number of ports break as well. Between the mergemaster and reboot steps you may wish to rebuild any critical ports. postfix, for example, refuses to start it's smtpd until you rebuild it. Any other ports which behave oddly, particularly those which die with a signal 11, probably need a rebuild. Yes, I ran into that as well. I gave up on guessing which ports needed to be re-compiled, and just did a portupgrade -fa, and went to bed. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'd advise some more coffee, you probably meant 'installworld' on the second instance. ;) Oh wow. Thanks.
