Problems going from 4.3-release to -stable
Hello, After a fresh install of obsd on a new server, I cannot update my system to -stable. The src has been obtained from cvs in the usual manner. Here is the error :- # cd /usr/src/sys/arch/sparc64/conf/ # ls CVS GENERIC.MP RAMDISK RAMDISKU5 GENERIC Makefile.sparc64RAMDISKU1 files.sparc64 # config GENERIC ../../../../conf/files:1005: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1006: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1007: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1008: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1009: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1010: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1011: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1012: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1013: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1014: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1015: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1016: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1017: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1018: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1019: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1020: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1021: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1022: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1023: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1024: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1025: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1026: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1027: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1028: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1029: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1030: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1031: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1032: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1033: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1034: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1035: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1036: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1037: syntax error ../../../../conf/files:1038: syntax error *** Stop. # uname -a OpenBSD atom 4.2 GENERIC#1427 sparc64 Am i missing something obvious?

You cannot compile 4.3-stable on a system running 4.2. Did you really do a fresh install? Maurice BTW: you can find binaries for 4.3-stable at ftp://ftp.z74.net/pub/OpenBSD/4.3-stable/ . Not for all architectures, but sparc64 is available. Of course it's up to you to decide if you have enough trust in me to use them.

Ignore that question, the 'obvious' has come and hit me in the face after scratching my head for 4 hours, answer - I have installed 4.2 and not 4.3 hence it wont build Sorry guys!
