I forgot you're upgrading from an old version of FreeBSD..it could be related to your other bootstrapping problems. Kris pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Can anyone comment on this? = It looks like your buildworld didn't complete before you tried to = installworld it. As far as the process is concerned it definitely completed, and I grepped for errors and found none in the logfile. The last thing buidlworld logged was: chmod 444 freebsd.submit.cf Having done this for the first time, I don't know what the last line should be.

Is that a bug? = No, you told cvsup to delete your ports collection (the ports tree is = not branched). This is also explained in the handbook. DOOF! Won't be doing that again in a hurry.

You need to have a consistent system in order to build world: you can't bootstrap from a system with some of the mandatory pieces missing. > c) buildworld generated 5406 warnings. Some examples are: Warnings are notes from the compiler to the developers.
