I have a working Dec 9 or so of -current for my Sparc.
When I started back after break, I decided to start over
with a brand new sup of the source tree.
I have not been able to do a clean build since early
January. I get a bewildering collection of error messages
regarding missing files and undefined modifiers. For example,
in trying to make a new kernel, I am stopped here:
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
making sure the stand-alone library is up to date...
Unknown modifier 'Q'
Unknown modifier 'Q'
Unknown modifier 'Q'
Unknown modifier 'Q'
Unknown modifier 'Q'
make: don't know how to make alloc.c. Stop
*** Error code 2
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
so given that I can start with December current binaries
and today's sup, what's the proper way to do a complete
new build?
thanks, Clarence Wilkerson
