Re: rebuilding world - is chflags -R noschg * necessary?
Hello!
Anton is right, really the handbook says that it MAY contain, so it's not
necessary that after every build there will be some files with the immutable
flag.
OFF: Long long time ago one night when I was playing with jails (to be exact
I was building and making work my first jail by hand) I got to know this
little thing known as immutable, after building a jail, and after #@$ing it
up (sry :)) I could not delete it. It was a funny discovery I remember I was
new to FBSD and unix in general:).
ON:
I think maybe in older releases the build process may have used the
immutable flag at build??, but the test machine I tried, started out as
maybe 5.2, and I never had this issue once. Now I'm at 8.1-REL. After you
make installworld you get some files immutable, check this:
# cd /usr/src/
# make installworld DESTDIR=/usr/home/testworld/
# cd /usr/home/testworld
# find . -xdev -flags +schg -exec ls -la {} \;

Anton if you wanna be sure just do it, or test it with the version you are
using, but I don't think you will find any immutable files in /usr/obj
/usr/obj]# find . -flags +schg -exec ls -la {} \;
/usr/obj]#
Sorry if this was a bit long, but I hope it helpded!

Do you have your root partitions (/, /usr ...) in r/w mode ?
There is a paragraph in the handbook

Re: Rebuilding World Failed
Hey,
I normally boot into multi-user mode, then drop down to single user mode via
shutdown now. When I run fsck and mount, those commands aren't found. I
checked the path and it contains /usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/sbin. So when I
boot into multiuser mode, then drop down to single user, the filesystems are
still mounted, aren't they? I recompiled world, but I messed up my system
and had to reinstall FreeBSD alltogether. When I did it the first time, I
did it the same way and it worked fine.

Re: Rebuilding World Failed
My box is going to be used as a server. But I'm just setting it up now, so
there aren't any other users nor major daemon's running on the system.
So I don't have to be a single user mode to do all this? Rebuild the kernel
and world, that is?

New install, rebuilding world
I'm new to FreeBSD, but I've been reading alot in the Handbook about building custom kernels and rebuilding world, and still can't seem to find what I'm looking for. I want to be able to recompile my whole system so that it's optimized for my hardware, but I'd rather not track -Stable and have to rebuild a whole slew of stuff every few days.

I want to be able to recompile my whole system so that it's optimized for my hardware, but I'd rather not track -Stable and have to rebuild a whole slew of stuff every few days. Track RELEASE security fix branch - the brach you want to cvsup is for example RELENG_6_1 for the bugfix and maintenance release for 6.1 (cvsupping RELENG_6 would get you stable from 6 branch, which is at the moment 6.1 stable). For the hardware etc - just tweak the make.conf and kernel config file to suit your needs. Can someone give me some advice (or point me to some documentation) on recompiling the -Release6.1 and then doing light maintenance (bug fixes, security updates) afterwards? The rest of if goes by the handbook - you can cvsup by hand or just make a script running once a week or so and alerting you if there are changes in release sources. Basically the regular buildworld - buildkernel - installkernel - installworld process is the recommended way to update, but now and then you can do smaller fixes just going to directory and doing a make install from there (but doing that you're on your own). -Reko ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: New install, rebuilding world
Read the Makefile in /usr/src, and UPDATING in /usr/src as well. What you will want to do is track the security branch, and subscribe to the security list to get any reports of issues. If an issue arises, you can choose to cvsup and rebuild, or not. If the issue is not in a subsystem you use, you can ignore it. -Derek At 09:31 AM 6/27/2006, AB wrote: I'm new to FreeBSD, but I've been reading alot in the Handbook about building custom kernels and rebuilding world, and still can't seem to find what I'm looking for.

I want to be able to recompile my whole system so that it's optimized for my hardware, but I'd rather not track -Stable and have to rebuild a whole slew of stuff every few days. Fair enough, though do keep in mind that ports aren't covered by a buildworld et al. procedure. As Reko suggested, you'll want to track the RELENG_6_1 CVS branch at this point, to keep up-to-date with 6.1-RELEASE and its security updates. Can someone give me some advice (or point me to some documentation) on recompiling the -Release6.1 and then doing light maintenance (bug fixes, security updates) afterwards? See the URL given above. Security updates can often be applied in a variety of ways (for instance, an issue in tcsh(1) might mean you can get away with simply rebuilding and reinstalling tcsh(1), rather than world), but for now, until at least you're pretty comfortable with rebuilding world, it's probably best to simply rebuild world and the kernel each time a security update for 6.1-RELEASE comes out. Rebuilding world can seem pretty scary at first, but you'll soon be able to do it almost without thinking about it!

I can build my 6.0 kernel without problem but I get the following make error when building world: === share/termcap (all) gzip -cn /usr/src/share/termcap/termcap.5 termcap.5.gz TERM=dumb TERMCAP=dumb: ex - /usr/src/share/termcap/termcap.src /usr/src/share/termcap/reorder cap_mkdb -l termcap cap_mkdb: illegal option -- l usage: cap_mkdb [-v] [-f outfile] file [file ...] I know this is related to my original the borked partial installworld. I'm stumped as to what I should try from here. Any thoughts? Please CC me on your response. Thanks a lot! Best, -- - justin Whatever I feel like I wanna do.

Another alternative, if you have more than one unixoid machine in your basement, is to set up your FreeBSD box to use a serial console, and string a null-modem cable from it to another machine. On the second machine you can use a terminal emulation program -- tip(1), kermit, even Windows Hyperterm to access the serial console on the FreeBSD box. This lets you drop to single user and still have remote access. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/serialconsole-setup.html Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK pgpoHVeeOARqb.pgp Description: PGP signature

I'm using MS Outlook (cringe) and don't want to offend anyone if it's formatted incorrectly. Looks fine to me in Thunderbird... Anyway, on to my real question. I have my system installed, and have CVSup-ed my source... So I think I'm ready to rebuild the world. However, considering that my BSD box is in a remote out of the way location in my basement, I am using ssh to do as much as possible on the box. Can I rebuild my system via ssh, or do I NEED to work directly on the machine? Can I drop into single user mode and still access the system via ssh (I know, sounds like I answered my own question, but hey we newbies never know) Once in single user mode, ssh is out of the question. In single user mode, only *person* can login, and that is at the actual terminal. Depending on the situation, for example. My firewall is at the other side of the house, without a keyboard/monitor. Since the box doesn't have any other logged in users, I normally build world in multi user mode. Doing so is taking a chance with the success of the build world, but like I said, it depends on the situation... ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Rebuilding world
Your installworld error is saying that it can't install without the new proxy user being added.the proxy user is added during the mergemaster -p.. So because your mergemaster -p is failing, your installworld is failing. Fix the mergemaster problem, and your installworld problem should go away. So what kind of error is your 'mergemaster -p' giving you? --Andy On Oct 5, 2004, at 9:15 PM, Ralph M.
