OK, we all FreeBSD users should forget the fact that there is an option '-j' in make(1) and it's helpful for building FreeBSD. I dunno AFAIK, we've never really supported -j for kernel building (which the linux module is part of). -j makes for world should certainly still work.

Re: We cannot use 'make -j' option to build the world, period.
dcs Err, we have been supporting -j for kernel building for a LONG dcs time. The "depend" and "install" targets did not support it, but dcs support on the "all" target is about as old as support on the dcs "buildworld" target. AFAIK, that's right. Obrien, please check src/release/Makeefile commitlog of revision 1.536.2.15 (for 4-stable) and 1.557 (for current) via CVSweb (or whatever): http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/release/Makefile You can see two make variable, WORLD_FLAGS and KERNEL_FLAGS, to pass some options such as -jX to make(1) if you want to do make release. obrien Or you could help debug the problem and submit at Makefile patch. :-) Maybe that's great, but sorry I don't have a time to do now... -- - Makoto `MAR' MATSUSHITA To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

Yes, but it has worked fairly well with values up to -j 10 on the machines I have access to at work :-) : Or you could help debug the problem and submit at Makefile patch. :-) I usually do a make -j 3 NO_MODULES=yes and then a separate make for the modules.
