Intersting - fetching with cvsup seems to have worked where csup did not. I may investigate further if time permits.

Or use cvsup to automatically download the missing files and directories. Would be easiest to use cvsup to bring your sources up to a current release. Same as one would do to restore /usr/src from CD, one can get a fresh copy of the tarballs from one of the FreeBSD mirrors. For 6.2 download all of: /pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/6.2-RELEASE/src Then simply untar them into /usr/src. -- David Kelly N4HHE, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
recreating directory structure
Some of the directories under /usr/src have gone missing. How do I re-create the directory structure? I know mtree is involved, but have no idea which flags and what file to feed it.
