I'm following the instructions at http://openbsd.org/stable/html to upgrade to 3.8-stable.
Everything works as it is supposed to until I get to the part where I am supposed to copy the newly compiled kernel into /. I execute the command and get this error: # cp bsd /bsd cp: /bsd: Operation not permitted I got around this by setting /etc/rc.securelevel to 0, rebooting, and then executing the commands: # chflags noschg /bsd # cp /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC/bsd /bsd # chflags schg /bsd Then changing /etc/rc.securelevel back to 1 and rebooting. Now uname -a is reported as: OpenBSD host.hostname.net 3.8 GENERIC#0 i386 So it appears that the kernel upgrade was successful...I hope. Now I'm tryig to upgrade the binaries by executing the following commands: # cd /usr/src/ # rm -r /usr/obj/* # make obj && make build It starts to compile but then gives me this error: ===> lib/libpthread "Makefile", line 29: Could not find /usr/src/lib/libpthread/include/Makefile.inc Fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src/lib. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. I'm not sure why it's missing that file as I performed a cvs checkout just last night using this command: # cd /usr; cvs checkout -P -rOPENBSD_3_8 src I just did: # cd /usr/src; rm -rf * # cd /usr; cvs checkout -P -rOPENBSD_3_8 src So, my questions are these: 1. Was this an appropriate way of doing the kernel upgrade? 2. How do I correctly clean up from the failed binary build? Is this ok: # cd /usr/obj/; rm -r * 3. How do I fix the error so it compiles correctly...assuming that the file shows up from the second cvs checkout 4. Once it compiles correctly, how do I install the binaries? The upgade page does not include this information. Thanks for the help. ------------------------------ Mike Loiterman grantADLER Tel: 630-302-4944 Fax: 773-442-0992 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Key: 0xD1B9D18E
