hello all,

i have got a weird problem with checking out system/userland sources
from the cvs repository. using the method described in
http://www.netbsd.org/guide/en/chap-cvs.html#id3033121 - i can see the
checkout process on the screen, but when cvs is done, there's no src
directory in /usr. i'm using exactly the following commands:

-
CVSROOT=":pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org"
export CVSROOT
cd /usr
cvs login
cvs checkout -rnetbsd-1-6-1 -PA src
-

Anybody knows of an explanation/workaround ?

i'm trying to fetch the 'current' sources (cvs command without the -r...
tag) atm.

regards,
-sd
