Date: 11 Nov 1996 11:52:11 GMT Organization: Communique DA Lines: 21 Message-ID: <56741b$c5r@o.online.no> NNTP-Posting-Host: www.communique.no Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: Text/Plain; charset=US-ASCII X-Newsreader: WinVN 0.99.8 (x86 32bit) Hello, I'm rather new at this game, so please bear with me. (Have looked through the FAQ & handbook) Trying to install X11 from the ports collection, I had su'd to root but forgotten the -l option (default is -m). Therefore 'make install' died when trying to execute ldconfig. As this is towards the end of the (lengthy) install, is there any way I could resume the installation without having to recompile? (I think it's completely finished with the man page installation.) If not, I fear I might possibly even have to do 'make clean' and before 'make install', as it seems that make makes backup files (of at least some files), and I have very little space to spare. Please cc me any reply. Thank you in advance, Best regards Are Bryne
