This is 1.5.1_ALPHA i386.

While in distrib/i386/floppies, when I do a make, I receive:
(cd
/usr/src/distrib/i386/floppies/ramdisk-big/../../../../sys/arch/i386/stand/installboot; make
installboot.o bootblks.o getmount.o loadfile.o)
cc -g -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes  -Werror
-I/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/stand/installboot/../lib/crt/bootsect
-I/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/stand/installboot/../../../../lib/libsa -I. -c
installboot.c
In file included from installboot.c:59:
/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/stand/installboot/../../../../lib/libsa/loadfile.h:70: machine/loadfile_machdep.h: No
such file or directory
*** Error code 1

So I go into sys/arch/i386/stand/installboot and do a make and it works.
And then the make in distrib/i386/floppies continues past that problem.

Then in ramdisk-small:

SPECIAL sh ${CURDIR}/../../../../distrib/sets/makeobsolete -b -s
${CURDIR}/../../../../distrib/sets -t ./dist 

/mnt: create/symlink failed, no inodes free
/usr/src/distrib/i386/floppies/ramdisk-small/../../../../distrib/sets/makeobsolete: cannot
create ./dist/etc_obsolete: file system full
rm: ./dist/etc_obsolete: No such file or directory

/mnt/bin/ed
...

All too large.

Then I look at "list". It has:

# copy the crunched binary, link to it, and kill it
COPY    ${OBJDIR}/ramdiskbin            ramdiskbin
LINK    ramdiskbin                      sysinst
LINK    ramdiskbin                      bin/cat
LINK    ramdiskbin                      bin/chio
LINK    ramdiskbin                      bin/chmod

and ramdiskbin is the same size (1121356).

Maybe this is fixed in current.

What are some suggestions so I can have -current sources and 1.5.1_ALPHA
sources on my 1.5.1_ALPHA box?
