Re: Clean install of FreeBSD, many ports wont compile

Thanks for your help in advance. Matt, I have a bad habit of misreading mails. I know I dod it, I try pretty hard, but I know i do it, and so I'll admit that right up front here, and tell you that the chances are pretty good that I did it here, although I re-read the first mail, and still don't see where I did that. It seemed to me that you were saying that you were doing a fist time install, but approachig it as if you were doing a kernel rebuild for the first time. I think (from your response) that you are probably telling me what's wrong, incorrectly. Like I said, I know I do that, and I want to admit it so that you do understand me. I know I probably deleted earlier mails that explained it better, because I don't see anywhere in your mail any comment about 5 systems ... is that it? -Matt Chuck Robey wrote: Matt Juszczak wrote: Still can't figure out how to get my FreeBSD machine to work properly.
