Can not build either kernel nor 'world'

2010-11-23 Thread Zhihao Yuan
I built and installed the latest 'world' this afternoon, and found that I
can not build the kernel now. And, the devd can not be started. I do not
know what's wrong. Maybe I need to downgrade my system to 8.1-RELEASE first.
What should I do now?

Re: Can not build either kernel nor 'world'

2010-11-23 Thread Zhihao Yuan
OK, I know what happened. The version that I used to buildworld happens to
have a bug in gcc, which just crashes and crashes. Then I tried to use the
external gcc42 to build the kernel, but I got the error message:
cc1: error: unrecognized command line option: -fformat-extension

So what, where can I get a working build tools that work for the kernel &
world, or how can I downgrade the world so I can get a working gcc and devd?

The following may help in getting your system running, but hasn't been tested:

1. Either update or downgrade your sources to get past the gcc bug.
2. Boot the FreeBSD livefs CD/memstick
3. mount your partions

mkdir /mnt
mount -t ufs /dev/ad0s1a /mnt
mount -t ufs /dev/ad0s1d /mnt/usr
mount -t ufs /dev/ad0s1e /mnt/var

4. link /mnt/usr/obj directory

ln -s /mnt/usr/obj /usr/obj

5. Build world and kernel

cd /mnt/usr/src/
make buildworld
make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL

6. Install the new world and kernel

make installworld DESTDIR=/mnt
make installkernel DESTDIR=/mnt KERNCONF=MYKERNEL
mergemaster -i -C -D /mnt

7.  Reboot the computer and remove the fixit CD

I used wget to get the base system, and installed it to a alternative root.
Then I replaced the broken gcc with the old working ones, then rebuild
everything. Now my system works.

This does not provide much information, You are trying to build world
and kernel for 8.1-STABLE ? or 8.1-RELEASE ?, CURRENT/HEAD ?

Have a log that you can put a link up somewhere so it can be viewed ?

Have you followed UPDATING entries that may be relavent to upgrading to
whatever your building ?

Also have a make.conf and src.conf with entries in it ? if so have you
tried removing those entries ?

Was your obj directory empty before you started your build ? If not,
remove it and start from scratch.

Also defining -DALWAYS_CHECK_MAKE may help in your situation as well but
its really hard to tell from this point.
