cannot install -STABLE world on 5.2.1 via NFS

[piotr.smyrak at heron.pl]

Hi,

I am trying to upgrade an old laptop with 5.2.1 to -STABLE 5.3. As always I mounted 
/usr/src and /usr/obj via NFS to the laptop, but when I try to make installworld in /usr/
src, I got:

ntbk@/usr/src # make installworld
mkdir -p /tmp/install.gS2oCXSs
for prog in [ awk cap_mkdb cat chflags chmod chown  date echo egrep find grep  ln 
make mkdir mtree mv pwd_mkdb rm sed sh sysctl  test true uname wc zic; do  cp 
`which $prog` /tmp/install.gS2oCXSs;  done
+cd /usr/src; MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX=/usr/obj  MACHINE_ARCH=i386  
MACHINE=i386  CPUTYPE=  GROFF_BIN_PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/legacy/usr/bin 
 GROFF_FONT_PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/legacy/usr/share/groff_font  
GROFF_TMAC_PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/legacy/usr/share/tmac  PATH=/usr/obj/usr/
src/i386/legacy/usr/sbin:/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/legacy/usr/bin:/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/legacy/
usr/games:/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/usr/sbin:/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/usr/bin:/usr/obj/usr/src/
i386/usr/games:/tmp/install.gS2oCXSs make -f Makefile.inc1 reinstall
*** Error code 127

Stop in /usr/src.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src.

I found this: 
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2004-October/040448.html 
but it doesn't seem to help. The buildworld I try to install is the same one I previously 
installed on the machine that built it, and it went fine.

I was able to partially installkernel. Partially since it break at modules with "+for: not 
found". I made the modules install step by step by hand.

I am out of ideas. Any help appreciated. Let me know if I should provide you with 
more information on the system.
