Error with make buildworld

[Dan Braun]

I'm trying to run make buildworld to upgrade FreeBSD 5.0 to 5.4.  When I run
make buildworld I get the following error:

 

"/etc/make.conf", line 1: Need an operator

make: fatal errors encountered cannot continue

 

Basically, I have no idea what to do with this, the log file doesn't tell me
anything different than this, so I don't know where to go from here.

 

Any advice would be much appreciated.  Thanks
