HELP! Can not build kernel ... :-(

2000-02-18 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.
I followed up the stuff posted here and this evening I want to change one of
our smaller server towards FBSD 4.0. Got the CD, have a complete new
source tree cvsuped this day and now I make a cd /sys/i386/conf ...
Within this directory, I only have the GENERIC, LINT NEWCARD files and
my own system's configuration file for building kernel. When typing
config MACHINE-NAME the command exits with error

config: can't open ../conf/devices.i386

Well, theses files have gone? I thought this could be an cvsupdate error, so
I installed the stuff for /sys again from CD. The same! What's new? What's the
problem? I got the ISO Image of 4.0-RC2-2214 and cvsupdated today. Can anybody 
help?

They have been removed.  You need up update your config and
genassym before you can build a 4.0 kernel.  Also, I hope your
kernel config file is based on a new config and isn't just a copy of a
3.x config since that likely won't work.
