Okay I am not able to get make to work at all.  Here's what I did.  makybe
someone can identify what I did wrong.

I FTP'd from FreeBSD's ftp site to releases/i386/6.2-RELEASE and downloaded
that directory.

Then I used sysinstall to do an upgrade.  However I changed the Install Root
directory to a drive other than /.

Then I untar'd base and src.

Then I copied GENERIC to RADIUS2 and tweaked the file to meet my needs.

When I tried to do a make I got a bunch of errors.   Now anytime I run the
make command I get the errors:
[root 271]> make
Unknown modifier 'C'

Unknown modifier '.'

Unknown modifier 'C'

Unknown modifier '/'

Unknown modifier 'C'

Unknown modifier '.'

Unknown modifier 'C'

Unknown modifier '/'

and

"/usr/share/mk/bsd.compat.mk", line 1: missing `in' in for
in
"/usr/share/mk/bsd.compat.mk", line 1: Need an operator
"/usr/share/mk/bsd.compat.mk", line 2: missing `in' in for
in
"/usr/share/mk/bsd.compat.mk", line 2: Need an operator
"/usr/share/mk/bsd.compat.mk", line 7: Need an operator
"/usr/share/mk/bsd.compat.mk", line 8: Need an operator


Any ideas on what I screwed up and how I might fix it?
