 This is a bug in installkernel.  Bug Peter Wemm [EMAIL PROTECTED] to fix it
 since he broke it. :)  Or find somone else who groks the src/Makefile.inc1
 stuff.

It's already been pointed out that this is a non-fatal error in
'installworld.' However, I have (and think I posted somewhere?) some
kludgey patches that build kldxref(8) as a cross-tool so that it works
for 4.5 to 5.0 upgrades. But it's not really the right fix (since it
is not a true cross-tool), so I haven't committed it.

Can we add kldxref(8) to bootstrap-tools, just like config(8)?

 You're attempting to upgrade incorrectly.  Follow the directions
 _precisely_ and this won't happen.

If this would work I'd gladly follow the procedure described in updating.

make buildworld: works ok.
make buildkernel: works ok.
copy GENERIC.hints to /boot/device.hints: works ok.
make installkernel: stops with error: kldxref not found

The suggestion on current was to simply make installworld so that the
missing file is installed and then make installkernel but this one wouldn't
work either.

so the kernel does need a file which is only part of curent but world will
only install itself when a current kernel exists. Like the snake biting its
own tail.

You're still actually running your 4.x kernel.  This may be an
omission in the documentation for upgrading to 5.0: you need to
install the new /boot/defaults/ files so that the boot loader will
automatically pick up the changed default location of the 5.0 kernel.

upgrade from 4.5 to current fails

2002-04-23 Thread Christian Flügel

Hello Folks.

I currently try to upgrade from 4.5 STABLE to CURRENT.

I have cvsuped my source and already made buildworld and buildkernel.

But installworld failed with Signal 12 while installing chpass.
When I try to remove chpass from hand I get a operation not permitted
error. Apparently the immutable flag prevents the file from being deleted.
Which is strange because the securelevel should be 0 when I'm in single user
mode. So I should be able to change the immutable flag.

So I booted from my fixit floppy mounted my slices and chrooted to my root
partition. But even then installworld dies with Signal 12 while processing
chpass.
And rm -f chpass will give me an operation not permitted error.

So what is wrong here?

Any Ideas?

Regards

Christian

Yeah. I picked those up too -- the signal 12 @ the install phase of chfoo.
I also got another shell failure when doing the depend phase of the kernel
build, but since I don't care what is in vers.c, and I don't care about the
chfoo set of utilities, I cheerfully continued.

On the second make the signal 12's were not repeated. I converted three
nodes from -STABLE to -CURRENT, getting the same shell error at the same
place.

Having spent many paid hours debugging the shell, this wasn't worth the
unpaid time to fix, since the work-around is simply a hosted (2nd) build,
in addition to the cross (1st) build.

Enjoy.

  You're attempting to upgrade incorrectly.  Follow the directions
  _precisely_ and this won't happen.
 
 I just got bit by this one myself from not following instructions, 
 for the past 2 weeks you didn't have to, you could just upgrade to 
 5.0 like tracking -stable.

No, for the past several months you haven't been able to installworld
a -current system under a -stable kernel.  That you were ever able to
do that before that time is pure chance.

Very strange that I did it last week then, possibly a fluke?
