Re: Newbie trying to build a new world
config: /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/MOAK:274: syntax error This means you have an error on line 274 of your kernel configuration file. Since line 274 is options PNPBIOS, I'm guessing that this option is deprecated and/or unavailable in 5.X. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hope that somebody can offer me some help. Many thanks Nicolas Well, it is telling you that it doesn't like the options PNPBIOS. That is an option for 4.x. For right now, I would just comment it out. BTW, booting to single user mode to build the kernel doesn't help. You want to do that when you do the installworld. Part of the reason for booting to single user mode is to test the new kernel and you haven't installed it at this point.

RE: Newbie trying to build a new world
Thank you all for answering. I tried all your solutions and I got one step further. I tried to: ln -s /root/kernels/MOAK /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/MOAK and got the answer that the file exists. I changed settings in MOAK. Then i ran: make installkernel KERNCONF=MOAK and it worked. But then I ran: make buildkernel KERNCONF=MOAK and I got this on my screen (last rows): install -p -m 555 -o root -g wheel kernel /boot/kernel install: /boot/kernel/kernel: Read-only file system Error code 71 Stop in /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MOAK Error code 1 stop in /usr/src error code 1 Thank you again Nicolas ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Ive done it on my old computer with 4,9 and it went smothe. This is the sequence that I followed: cd /usr/obj rm -Rf * cd /usr/src make buildworld Then: cd /usr/src make buildkernel KERNCONF=MOAK If you didn't reboot or drop to single user, the next step is bad. Then: fsck -p mount -u / mount -a -t ufs swapon -a cd /usr/src make installworld make installkernel KERNCONF=MOAK It is hard following the order in the handbook Nop. First you intallkernel, then you reboot, then from single user installworld. Note that the ultimate reference for all this is /usr/src/UPDATING; if something is told there, follow it. READ IT. Read it again. Follow it. I think it is a bit confusing to read. In my last mail I wrote it in the wrong order. Could be. But perhaps you should take a little pause, drink a coffee, etc. and retry a little later; often one makes the same mistakes again and again when tired; experience speaking ;) Second suggestion - print this and follow it (if it doesn't conflict with UPDATING, I don't know from what to what you are upgrading): cd /usr/obj chflags -R noschg * rm -Rf * cd /usr/src make clean all script /tmp/build_kernel_1 make buildkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC touch /tmp/done_Build_Kernel_G make installkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC touch /tmp/done_Install_Kernel_G CTRL+D if it breaks until here you have a problem with your sources; cvsup. reboot if everithing seems to be OK: script /tmp/mergemaster_p mergemaster -p CTRL+D script /tmp/build_w cd /usr/src make buildworld touch /tmp/done_Build_World make buildkernel KERNCONF=MOAK touch /tmp/done_Build_Kernel make installkernel KERNCONF=MOAK touch /tmp/done_Install_Kernel CTRL+D reboot in single user fsck -p mount -u / mount -a -t ufs swapon -a if needed (you don't have the BIOS clock on UTC) also : adjkerntz -i script /tmp/install_w make installworld CTRL+D reboot script /tmp/build_w maergemaster CTRL+D Of course, heaven only knows what exactly did you do until now; but with script we can try to figure out what goes wrong. The touch(1) are only to be easy to see where it breaks. If I try again do I have to do it all from the beginning (cvsup src and ports)? No. The hole make ... doesn't change the sources. -- IOnut Unregistered ;) FreeBSD user ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
