I am trying to build RELENG_6. I receive the following errors. [root@s4cr /usr/src]# make buildworld "/dev/null", line 4: Need an operator "/dev/null", line 6: Need an operator "/dev/null", line 8: Need an operator "/dev/null", line 9: Need an operator "/dev/null", line 11: Need an operator "/dev/null", line 12: Need an operator "/dev/null", line 13: Need an operator "/dev/null", line 15: Need an operator "/dev/null", line 16: Need an operator "/dev/null", line 18: Need an operator I figured I got a partial update or something. Re-supping didn't help. I am building on 6.2-RELEASE inside a jail. Jails are new for me so maybe I missed something there. Any ideas? Thanks, Jason

Look closely at the -f argument being passed to make. I cannot help you with jails, as I know nothing about them. But it appears to me you have a very broken make.conf or build environment. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.

If the latter, you probably forgot to mount devfs onto a jail's /dev. Cheers, -- Ruslan Ermilov ru@FreeBSD.org FreeBSD committer
