After 37 installations of NETBSD, ya would think I have it down perfect!
Unfortuanatly, I have NEVER ran into this problem.
OK I install NETBSD just fine. Extract the files as per docs and everything
is hunky dorky... I get to configure and type in my site.name (mud.pln.com)
and my domain.name (pln.com). I get a BEEEP and it says:
--
WARNING: There exists a default sendmail.cf that may have to be tuned and/or
replaced for this to work on your system!
--
OK I press on.. I get to the end of the Configure process and it says:
--
Making device nodes. (this may take a while).....
--
Then I IMMEDIATLY receive the following message:
--
MAKEDEV: 243: Syntax error: Bad substitution
--
I have NO idea what this means or where I went wrong and several experts on
#netbsd or #amigager have no clue as well.
Here is what I have tried...
I have tried different Hard Drives.. Different Computers.. I have FTPed the
base10 etc etc files at LEAST half a dozen times.. I always get the same
crap. :^( I am truly losing what is left of my mind.
My system is an A2000 w/ a 2091 and a Derringer 030 @50 mhz and 8 MEGS RAM.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated...
