It has been broken since June. > Regards, > Bryan Drewery Thanks for the fix, computer is now busy with NetBSD update from 6.99.44 (16 months old) to 7.99.21 for both amd64 and i386, but I intend to get back to the FreeBSD update after that is done. I checked /etc/src.conf and found WITHOUT_MANCOMPRESS=yes WITHOUT_DOCCOMPRESS=yes I looked in other directions for the problem and would have just been wasting time and computer energy. Compressed man pages can be a nuisance, and not really necessary or helpful with today's big hard drives and USB sticks. Good I was able to expose a bug of four months' standing. UPDATE: buildworld succeeded, but installworld crashed to the debugger prompt: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode Reboot attempt, both with custom kernel and GENERIB, failed: /libc/libc.so.7: version FBSD_1.3 required by /bin/sh not defined GENERIB is kernel config derived from GENERIC but with some outdated devices unlikely to be found on a modern computer system removed, and some wireless drivers including rsu added. So now that FreeBSD installation is not bootable. I ran fsck_ffs -y /dev/dk9 from NetBSD 7.99.21 (current) i386, /dev/dk9 being NetBSD's version of the FreeBSD partition name. I can say "make installworld" likely failed because, after interrupted (crashed) installworld, userland was out of sync. I have another FreeBSD partition, 10.1-STABLE amd64, dating to January 29, 2015, could boot into that and try to update both that (10.2-STABLE) and the messed-up FreeBSD-current installation (with HEAD/current). MicroNet Fantom external hard drives, 1 TB to 5 TB, USB 3.0 and eSATA, look attractive now, back up a whole OS installation, eSATA figures to work better than USB 3.0: better for FreeBSD and NetBSD, and better recognition at boot time by motherboard/BIOS/UEFI.
