getting an old server up to scratch...

[Jeff D. Hamann]

This is the result after a cvsup attempt using the following cvsupfile:

stimpy# cd /etc
stimpy# cat cvsupfile
*default  host=cvsup5.FreeBSD.org
*default  base=/usr
*default  prefix=/usr
*default  release=cvs
*default  tag=RELENG_4
*default  delete use-rel-suffix
*default  compress
src-all
*default tag=.
ports-all
doc-all
stimpy#


stimpy# make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL

--------------------------------------------------------------
>>> Kernel build for MYKERNEL started on Tue Dec 20 21:18:33 PST 2005
--------------------------------------------------------------
===> MYKERNEL
mkdir -p /usr/obj/usr/src/sys
cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf; 
PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/usr/sbin:/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/usr/bin:/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/usr/games:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin 
config  -d /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MYKERNEL  /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/MYKERNEL
ERROR: version of config(8) does not match kernel!
config version = 400018, version required = 400019

Make sure that /usr/src/usr.sbin/config is in sync
with your /usr/src/sys and install a new config binary
before trying this again.

If running the new config fails check your config
file against the GENERIC or LINT config files for
changes in config syntax, or option/device naming
conventions

*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src.
