Message-ID: <26vhmq$l0m@shrike.und.ac.za> Date: 12 Sep 93 16:11:06 GMT Article-I.D.: shrike.26vhmq$l0m Organization: University of Natal (Durban), South Africa Lines: 24 NNTP-Posting-Host: shrike.und.ac.za X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL0] Hi, We have Netbsd 0.9 running on a 486 SX/33. We are still running the distributed kernel, GENERICAHA. I've met with no success trying to rebuild any kernel. I've tried various modifications of ALL and GERNERICAHA, including unchanged ones, and always it complains of missing .o files on the final link. To start with, ir complained that subr_mcount.o did not exist so I modified the makefile to make sure it compiled that. Then it can't find af.o, cons.o, uipc_proto.o .... Many object files are built, and just a few appear to be missing. All the source, particularly the ones it complains about, are there. The make never tries to compile any of the files that it later complains about. Most of the files are standard, ie not selected by options. There seems to be nothing that the offending files have in common. Please, I would be grateful for any words of advice. I don't think I am doing anything dumb, so I suspect something must be missing somewhere. btw, config, make depend, and make generate no errors at all. Thanks in advance gavin
