installworld in 6.2

[Doug Hardie]

I have found what I believe is a "bug" in installworld for FreeBSD  
6.2.  I do not believe this was in 6.1 as I would have encountered  
the same problem there.  I run a number of production servers.  I  
maintain the source on one development machine where it is built and  
tested.  To upgrade a production server I NIS mount /usr/src and /usr/ 
obj then run the commands per UPDATING.  The problem occurs now  
because my development machine has /usr on a slice on the same disk  
as /.  However, /usr/obj is a soft link to /usr2 which is a separate  
drive.  There was not enough space on the primary drive for  
everything and I really don't need to backup /usr/obj as it can  
easily be rebuilt.

During make installworld when it gets to the /boot section I get an  
error that it cannot make a library in /usr2/obj/src.....  Everything  
quits at that point.  My production machines do not have a /usr2  
filesystem.  In order to get installworld to work I had to add a soft  
link on the production server of /usr2 pointing to /usr.  Then  
installworld completed properly.  I don't believe that link should be  
needed.
