Hi!
I'm trying to build an i386 boot floppy image with a custom kernel,
but I get these errors
and of course I can't understand what's my mistake. I get the same in
the distrib/i386/floppies
directory:

% pwd
/usr/src/distrib/i386/ramdisks
% sudo bmake
all ===> ramdisk-big
bmake: "/usr/src/distrib/i386/ramdisks/ramdisk-big/../common/
Makefile.ramdisk" line 4: Could not find /distrib/common/
Makefile.distrib
bmake: "/usr/src/distrib/i386/ramdisks/ramdisk-big/../common/

bmake: "/usr/src/distrib/i386/ramdisks/ramdisk-big/../common/
Makefile.ramdisk" line 49: Could not find /common/Makefile.image
bmake: "/usr/src/distrib/i386/ramdisks/ramdisk-big/Makefile" line 13:
Malformed conditional (${USE_INET6} != "no")
bmake: "/usr/src/distrib/i386/ramdisks/ramdisk-big/Makefile" line 15:
if-less endif
bmake: "/usr/src/distrib/i386/ramdisks/ramdisk-big/Makefile" line 15:
Need an operator
bmake: Fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue

Can anyone tell me what I should do to get rid of this problem?
Thank you very much, and of course sorry if such a question has already
been answered, but I really don't know where to search anymore! :)
(that's the n_th time I'm trying to send the message, I think it's
my horrible fault...
sorry if you receive it more than once.... :)
