The line that fails is: mtree -deU -f /usr/src/etc/mtree/BSD.root.dist -p / This makes me wounder about the BSD.root.dist file... I don't use ppp either. Should I have my custom BSD.root.dist file, or is there a way to modify the build process to check the /etc/make.conf file and eliminate certain users from the /usr/src/etc/mtree/BSD.root.dist file? The mtree files should be getting updated via mergemaster, so you shouldn't have any trouble with making a local modification and keeping it through system updates. It's probably more safer to keep the users there, though. Their default login information doesn't give them any system access capabilities, so their presence isn't a risk.
