pam: don't allow escape from policy path. Exploitable in KDE, etc. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
Fix pam_ssh module: |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
If the pam_ssh module is enabled, attackers may be able to gain access |
| 9 |
to user accounts which have unencrypted SSH private keys. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
This has to due with the way that openssl works. It ignores unencrpted data. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Fix security issue with chroot and ftpd. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
nsdispatch(3) doesn't know it's working in a chroot and some |
| 16 |
operations can cause files to get reloaded causing a security |
| 17 |
hole in things like ftpd. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
20111217: |
| 20 |
libdialog/dialog upgraded to an lgpl version. As it's not |
| 21 |
backwardly compatable, include the old libdialog as libodialog |
| 22 |

| 67 |
|
| 68 |
et(4) Agere Gigabit Ethernet/Fast Ethernet driver added, but |
| 69 |
not included in GENERIC kernel. The kernel module needs |
| 70 |
testing before we can include it in GENERIC. |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
intr_bind code ported to allow an IRQ to be bound to one |
| 73 |
specific CPU core. |
| 74 |
|
| 75 |
20111017: |
| 76 |
Time Zone Data v. 2011l (Released 10 October 2011) |
| 77 |
|
| 78 |
Updated list of countries (iso3166) to work with new timezone data. |
| 79 |
|
| 80 |
20111015: |
| 81 |
Introduce CPU Affinity in MidnightBSD. cpuset(1) can be used |
| 82 |
to control which core or group of cores can be used for a given |
| 83 |
process. Several new system calls were added to support this |
| 84 |
functionality in the running kernel and for 32bit binary |
| 85 |
compatibility on amd64. |
| 86 |
|
| 87 |
The scheduler default has been changed to ULE in i386 and |
| 88 |
amd64. Changes were made to both schedulers (4BSD AND ULE) |
| 89 |
for this feature. |
| 90 |
|
| 91 |
This work is based on Jeff Roberson's FreeBSD 7.1 patches. |
| 92 |
|
| 93 |
20111004: |
| 94 |
Fix a problem with unix socket handling caused by the recent |
| 95 |
patch to unix socket path handling. This allows network |
| 96 |
apps to work under the linuxolator again. |
| 97 |
|
| 98 |
20111001: |
| 99 |
Import libfetch & fetch(1) from FreeBSD 9. Passive FTP is |
| 100 |
now default and an environment variable must be set to use |
| 101 |
active. |
| 102 |
|
| 103 |
20110930: |
| 104 |
Introduce quirks handling for several umass devices including |
| 105 |
USB cameras. Add workaround for Cyberpower UPS devices. |
| 106 |
|
| 107 |
Bring in further bug fixes from FreeBSD and NetBSD for alc(4). |
| 108 |
Stale ip/tcp header pointers are no longer used, lockups fixed |
| 109 |
when network cable is unplugged on bootup, enable TX checksum |
| 110 |
offloading. |
| 111 |
|
| 112 |
Add a new man page for gcache(8), a useful geom class when |
| 113 |
working with large raid3 sets. |
| 114 |
|
| 115 |
Restore previous workaround for Cypress pata storage controller. |
| 116 |
|
| 117 |
20110929: |
| 118 |
Sync ath(4) with FreeBSD 7.3. |
| 119 |
|
| 120 |
The following modules are no longer available, and should be |
| 121 |
removed from loader.conf: |
| 122 |
ath_hal ath_rate_amrr ath_rate_onoe ath_rate_sample |
| 123 |
|
| 124 |
alc(4) would hibernate when a cable was unplugged and often |
| 125 |
required bring the interface down and up to "wake up" so that |
| 126 |
a connection could be established. Disable hibernation. |
| 127 |
|
| 128 |
20110928: |
| 129 |
Fix security issues with gzip and compress related to .Z |
| 130 |
files that are corrupted. |
| 131 |
|
| 132 |
Fix path validation with unix domain sockets. |
| 133 |
|
| 134 |
20110917: |
| 135 |
Remove dependance on mports perl for generating releases as |
| 136 |
it's in the base system. |
| 137 |
|
| 138 |
20110914: |
| 139 |
Import xz 5.0.3 with liblzma 5.0.3 |
| 140 |
|
| 141 |
20110813: |
| 142 |
synced the sparc64 GENERIC kernel configuration with amd64. |
| 143 |
|
| 144 |
20110806: |
| 145 |
sqlite 3.7.7.1 imported |
| 146 |
|
| 147 |
msearch(1), libmsearch and msearch.import added. msearch(1) provides |
| 148 |
a full text search command line tool. libmsearch can also be used |
| 149 |
to build a graphical based search in the future. You can enable |
| 150 |
index building for msearch in periodic.conf or manually run the |
| 151 |
/usr/libexec/msearch.index tool. Full text indexes take considerable |
| 152 |
space in /var. I'm using approximately 500MB currently. |
| 153 |
|
| 154 |
Fix a long standing bug with the periodic script to check package |
| 155 |
versions. This will be obsolete with mport though. |
| 156 |
|
| 157 |
20110710: |
| 158 |
kdb_enter_why added to MidnightBSD to allow the kernel debugger to |
| 159 |
know why it's in use and thus script can be run. |
| 160 |
|
| 161 |
Yet another problem with the perl manifest was fixed |
| 162 |
|
| 163 |
20110709: |
| 164 |
cpufreq(1) is a new utility to monitor CPU frequency which may change |
| 165 |
with use of powerd(8) and cpufreq(4). |
| 166 |
|
| 167 |
20110612: |
| 168 |
Update mksh to R40 |
| 169 |
|
| 170 |
Catch up ObsoleteFiles.inc to remove Perl 5.10.x. Good to run when |
| 171 |
updating current (cd /usr/src && make check-old) |
| 172 |
|
| 173 |
20110528: |
| 174 |
Fix CVE-2011-1910 in BIND 9.6.x. This affects caching resolvers. |
| 175 |
|
| 176 |
20110526: |
| 177 |
newfs: |
| 178 |
Raised the default blocksize for UFS/FFS filesystems from |
| 179 |
16K to 32K and the default fragment size from 2K to 4K. |
| 180 |
|
| 181 |
This should slightly imporve performance on "advanced format" |
| 182 |
hard drives such as the WD EARS drives. Drives of this type |
| 183 |
have emulation modes that slow down with lower sizes. Of course |
| 184 |
the drive must still be aligned properly when using fdisk. |
| 185 |
|
| 186 |
20110521: |
| 187 |
mport tool now has a deleteall command. This can be used to remove |
| 188 |
all packages from a system. |
| 189 |
|
| 190 |

| 229 |
igb(4) and em(4). Newer devices use igb(4). The code has moved |
| 230 |
to sys/dev/e1000 for both devices in the kernel. igb(4) has |
| 231 |
been placed in GENERIC on i386 and amd64. |
| 232 |

numbers. [CVE-2010-2939] |
| 277 |
|
| 278 |
20101120: |
| 279 |
Several portions of the kernel and userland code related to UFS file |
| 280 |
systems (and UFS2) cannot properly handle inode counts above 2^31 due |
| 281 |
to use of int types. Based on a patch from FreeBSD, I've modified |
| 282 |
our UFS2 implementation to handle unsigned values for inode counts |
| 283 |
which should allow for file systems greater than 16TB. |
| 284 |
|
| 285 |
newfs and growfs was also modified. |
| 286 |
|
| 287 |
20101110: |
| 288 |
Fix a security issue with pseudofs which could result in running code in kernel |
| 289 |
context or a kernel panic depending on system configuration. This affects file |
| 290 |
systems such as procfs for instance. |
| 291 |
|
| 292 |
20101021: |
| 293 |
sysrc is a utility to print and modify name/value pairs in /etc/rc.conf easily. |

Fix a security issue with libutil that allows users to bypass cpu limits in |
| 306 |
login.conf in some cases. This combined with OpenSSH for example can allow |
| 307 |
the user to get more resources than they're allowed. |
| 308 |

libdispatch added to MidnightBSD. This provides functionality found in |
| 314 |
Mac OS X's GCD. We do not have blocks support yet. As this code is |
| 315 |
licensed under Apache 2, we create a new MK_APACHE option so that |
| 316 |
it's not required for all users to run code under a license they |
| 317 |
may not like. |

Remove PCC from the base system. This compiler will not work |
| 442 |
as a system compiler for us as we've got some userland investment |
| 443 |
in C++ code and may have Objective-C in the future. We're stuck |
| 444 |
with a solution that supports these three languages at a minimum. |
| 445 |
|
| 446 |
I had wanted to keep it as an optional compiler because it is |
| 447 |
fast, however too many users want to try to use it for the base |
| 448 |
system which makes no sense. |
| 449 |
|
| 450 |
A hack was added for Cypress based usb hard drive enclosures to |
| 451 |
the kernel. This should cut down on commands it claims to support |
| 452 |
but does not (at the cam layer). Found while testing ZFS on |
| 453 |
an external device. |
| 454 |
|

The powerd daemon no longer starts automatically to improve |
| 457 |
compatibility with many systems. However, there is a new |
| 458 |
installer option in the startup section to enable it. This |
| 459 |
makes it easier to enable for users that have working systems. I thought it was only a problem on older hardware, but it freaks |
| 460 |
out my new Phenom too. |

xorg 7.4 wants to configure its input devices via hald which does not |
| 486 |
yet work with USB. If the keyboard/mouse does not work in xorg then |
| 487 |
add |
| 488 |
Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off" |
| 489 |
to your ServerLayout section. This will cause X to use the configured |
| 490 |
kbd and mouse sections from your xorg.conf |

mksh was disconnected a few day ago do to bugs with |
| 494 |
buildworld and mports. Now, connect it back |
| 495 |
for use as /bin/sh with a conditional called |
| 496 |
MK_ASH. By default, ash is the standard /bin/sh |
| 497 |
but we may change this later. This will allow further |
| 498 |
testing by users and developers of mksh without |
| 499 |
causing an unpleasant default experience. In the |
| 500 |
long run, we need to fix mksh compatibility. |
| 501 |
|
| 502 |
20090328: |
| 503 |
Bring in mksh R37 from CVS. The dot.mkshrc files for root |
| 504 |
and skel were changed. mksh(1) now replaces ash aka sh(1) |
| 505 |
as the default /bin/sh. Please report bugs with |
| 506 |
ports, etc. The ash code will remain in the repo for awhile |
| 507 |
as I decide if we'll add something like MK_SHELL_ASH as |
| 508 |
an optional build parameter. |
| 509 |
|

Update libarchive to 2.5.5, tar, and add bsdcpio. |
| 518 |
|
| 519 |
Also previously, ctriv has been connecting Perl 5.10 |
| 520 |
to the build (part of os). This will have an impact |
| 521 |
on mports. |

For applications using OpenSSL for SSL connections, an invalid SSL |
| 537 |
certificate may be interpreted as valid. This could for example be |
| 538 |
used by an attacker to perform a man-in-the-middle attack. |
| 539 |
|
| 540 |
Other applications which use the OpenSSL EVP API may similarly be |
| 541 |
affected. |

Due to the massive change in the underlying system under way, |
| 559 |
we're naming the next release 1.0. The sys/sys/param.h was |
| 560 |
changed accordingly. ipfilter and ncurses were corrected |
| 561 |
using __MidnightBSD__ tests in the code. |
| 562 |
|
| 563 |
The GENERIC kernel config was caught up on i386 today. Consider |
| 564 |
i386 still broken, but amd64 is running again. |
| 565 |
|
| 566 |
mdoc.local was updated with the new MidnightBSD version info. |
| 567 |
|
| 568 |
batt(1) was rewritten in C. It now supports several flags and |
| 569 |
runs about 8 times faster on my laptop. The default output |
| 570 |
shows the number of minutes of battery life remaining and the |
| 571 |
percentage. You can use -u to display the number of batteries or |
| 572 |
-c to get script friendly output. Consult the man page for more. |
| 573 |
|
| 574 |
20081204: |

| 579 |
intel gigabit (em), support for several wifi cards (intel), ... |
| 580 |
|
| 581 |
Renamed 0.3-CURRENT officially. Switched to using MidnightBSD version |
| 582 |
data from param.h instead of the FreeBSD version. This means |
| 583 |
testing is now possible in the ports tree for the version |
| 584 |
and that any ports or code relying on the FreeBSD version from |
| 585 |
sys/sys/param.h will need to be fixed. |
| 586 |
|
| 587 |
20080905: |
| 588 |
update nve(4) to support new hardware. |
| 589 |

The elf note on binaries is now set to MidnightBSD. |
| 626 |
|
| 627 |
20080514: |
| 628 |
Fixed a number of problems with pcc. It is not yet connected |
| 629 |
to the build, but usable on i386 hosts. You may use it |
| 630 |
by make; make install in /usr/src/usr.bin/pcc. It will |
| 631 |
install in /usr/local as some of the files conflict with |
| 632 |
GCC versions. __MidnightBSD__ is defined in PCC as well. |
| 633 |
|
| 634 |
System headers were fixed to allow pcc to compile many binaries |
| 635 |
on MidnightBSD. bin/cp will work now for instance. |
| 636 |
|
| 637 |
20080430: |
| 638 |
__MidnightBSD__ is now defined via gcc. This can be tested |
| 639 |
to determine we're running on MidnightBSD in the preprocessor. |

| 769 |
with a "desktop" configuration. Consult /etc/rc.firewall |
| 770 |
or ipfw show to see the ruleset used. You can disable |
| 771 |
ipfw by setting firewall_enable="NO" in /etc/rc.conf This |
| 772 |
change only effects IPv4. IPv6 does not have a firewall |
| 773 |
enabled by default. |
| 774 |
|
| 775 |
20070814: |
| 776 |
Removed GNU tar source. We've been using BSD tar |
| 777 |
for awhile. |
| 778 |
|
| 779 |
20070806: |
| 780 |
Finished removing umapfs and autofs from the tree. |
| 781 |

20070804: |
| 783 |
BIND and Tcpdump have been patched for recent vulnerabilities. |
| 784 |
|
| 785 |
We switched to BSD cpio (pax). |
| 786 |
|
| 787 |
20070719: |
| 788 |
Imported cpdup from DragonFly as /bin/cpdup |
| 789 |
|

20070716: |
| 791 |
Update GNU cpio to 2.8. |
| 792 |
|
| 793 |
20070410: |
| 794 |
cvs was updated to 1.12.13. cvsbug was removed. |
| 795 |
cvs now behaves similarly to DragonFly's cvs with |
| 796 |
most of their local changes. |
| 797 |
|
| 798 |
20070409: |
| 799 |
RELENG_0_1 was created. More aggresive changes will |
| 800 |
continue here. |
| 801 |
|
| 802 |
20070406: |
| 803 |
Back out propolice. propolice caused several problems |
| 804 |
with our threading libraries libthr and libpthread. |
| 805 |
curthread was often NULL after the patch and many |
| 806 |
multithreaded applications would crash. We plan to |
| 807 |
work on either bringing in gcc 4.1 or developing a new |
| 808 |
patch which also corrects our threading issues later. |
| 809 |
|
| 810 |
It is more important to have a stable system for our |
| 811 |
mport work and other projects at this time. |
| 812 |
|
| 813 |
This is not a clean removal. It is recommended that you |
| 814 |
have a recently SNAP CD handy. You can either reinstall |
| 815 |
or perform a make buildworld and make buildkernel and |
| 816 |
make installkernel. Reboot on the cd and copy the contents |
| 817 |
of /bin, /sbin, /lib, /libexec, and /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, |
| 818 |
/usr/lib, and /usr/libexec to the respective directories on |
| 819 |
your disk. Then you should be able to boot into single user |
| 820 |
mode and run make installworld. You will need to run |
| 821 |
chflags noschg on some of the files if you can't overwrite |
| 822 |
them. |
| 823 |
|
| 824 |
You will get __guard missing errors since we had to remove |
| 825 |
this from libc. |
| 826 |
|
| 827 |
You will need to rebuild any ports built while propolice was |
| 828 |
installed. |
| 829 |
|
| 830 |
20070401: |
| 831 |
Importing propolice into MidnightBSD. Propolice is going to |
| 832 |
provide us with much greater security and stability in the |
| 833 |
long run. If upgrading from a pre-propolice system, please |
| 834 |
follow the these instructions: |
| 835 |
|
| 836 |
cd /usr/src/lib/libc && make obj && make && make install |
| 837 |
cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc && make obj && make && make install |
| 838 |
cd /usr/src/lib/libpthread && make obj && make && make install |
| 839 |
cd /usr/src/lib/libthr && make obj && make && make install |
| 840 |
buildworld and kernel |
| 841 |
|
| 842 |
It is adviced that any mports which were installed and/or built |
| 843 |
prior to the propolice update also be updated. If any errors |
| 844 |
or issue are encounted, please contact security@midnightbsd.org |
| 845 |
and we will be sure to investigate and come up with an expeditious |
| 846 |
fix. |
| 847 |
|
| 848 |
20070314: |
| 849 |

|
| 867 |
20070308: |
| 868 |
Added mfi which supports LSI Logic MegaRAID SAS devices including |
| 869 |
the Dell perc5i. |
| 870 |
|
| 871 |
20070206: |
| 872 |
Imported OpenBSD's sudo into source. Please install |
| 873 |
/usr/src/usr.bin/sudo/lib first before building. |
| 874 |
|
| 875 |
Those who install from a snapshot after this date |
| 876 |
will not be effected. |
| 877 |
|
| 878 |
20070119: |
| 879 |
Added audit group. Be sure to add audit to your /etc/group file |

wpa_supplicant was updated. |
| 888 |
|
| 889 |
For stability and compatibility reasons, it was decided that MidnightBSD |
| 890 |
sync with FreeBSD 6.1 Release. Nearly every change between the original |
| 891 |
fork date of February 24, 2006 and the release of FreeBSD 6.1 in May |
| 892 |
2006 will be merged. Beyond this, MidnightBSD will be a "real" fork and |
| 893 |
will not sync every little change with FreeBSD. |
| 894 |
|
| 895 |
20061231: |
| 896 |
Updated COPYRIGHT for 2007. |

Added MidnightBSD_version and bumped the FreeBSD version as we've |
| 901 |
synced all commits between the fork and that version. It is now safe |
| 902 |
to assume MidnightBSD is compatible with FreeBSD RELENG_6 from |
| 903 |
Feb 26, 2006. |
| 904 |
|
| 905 |
Added spell(1) and deroff(1) from NetBSD. Also added additional |
| 906 |

that caused long double to long and long long |
| 929 |
conversion of negative numbers to always result in -1. |
| 930 |
|
| 931 |
20061221: |
| 932 |
Fixed acpi_battery.c to not report an ERROR if no |
| 933 |
batteries are present. |

| 991 |
on a per line basis. |
| 992 |
|
| 993 |
The kernel has a keyboard mux which allows you to have multiple |
| 994 |
keyboard connected simultaneously. USB keyboard support was also |
| 995 |
improved with this patch. |
| 996 |
|
| 997 |
The Intel em driver was updated. Network performance was greatly |
| 998 |

| 1007 |
|
| 1008 |
|
| 1009 |
|
| 1010 |
To build a kernel |
| 1011 |
----------------- |
| 1012 |
If you are updating from a prior version of MidnightBSD (even one just |
| 1013 |
a few days old), you should follow this procedure. With a |
| 1014 |
/usr/obj tree with a fresh buildworld, |
| 1015 |
make -DALWAYS_CHECK_MAKE buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE |
| 1016 |
make -DALWAYS_CHECK_MAKE installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE |
| 1017 |
|
| 1018 |
To test a kernel once |
| 1019 |
--------------------- |
| 1020 |
If you just want to boot a kernel once (because you are not sure |
| 1021 |
if it works, or if you want to boot a known bad kernel to provide |
| 1022 |
debugging information) run |
| 1023 |
make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE KODIR=/boot/testkernel |
| 1024 |
nextboot -k testkernel |
| 1025 |
|
| 1026 |
To just build a kernel when you know that it won't mess you up |
| 1027 |
-------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 1028 |
This assumes you are already running a 6.X system. Replace |
| 1029 |
${arch} with the architecture of your machine (e.g. "i386", |
| 1030 |
"amd64", "ia64", "pc98", "sparc64", etc). |
| 1031 |
|
| 1032 |
cd src/sys/${arch}/conf |
| 1033 |
config KERNEL_NAME_HERE |
| 1034 |
cd ../compile/KERNEL_NAME_HERE |
| 1035 |
make depend |
| 1036 |
make |
| 1037 |
make install |
| 1038 |
|
| 1039 |
If this fails, go to the "To build a kernel" section. |
| 1040 |
|
| 1041 |
To rebuild everything and install it on the current system. |
| 1042 |
----------------------------------------------------------- |
| 1043 |
# Note: sometimes if you are running current you gotta do more than |
| 1044 |
# is listed here if you are upgrading from a really old current. |
| 1045 |
|
| 1046 |
<make sure you have good level 0 dumps> |
| 1047 |
make buildworld |
| 1048 |
make kernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE |
| 1049 |
[1] |
| 1050 |
<reboot in single user> [3] |
| 1051 |
mergemaster -p [5] |
| 1052 |
make installworld |
| 1053 |
make delete-old |
| 1054 |
mergemaster [4] |
| 1055 |
<reboot> |
| 1056 |
|
| 1057 |
|
| 1058 |
To cross-install current onto a separate partition |
| 1059 |
-------------------------------------------------- |
| 1060 |
# In this approach we use a separate partition to hold |
| 1061 |
# current's root, 'usr', and 'var' directories. A partition |
| 1062 |
# holding "/", "/usr" and "/var" should be about 2GB in |
| 1063 |
# size. |
| 1064 |
|
| 1065 |
<make sure you have good level 0 dumps> |
| 1066 |
<boot into -stable> |
| 1067 |
make buildworld |
| 1068 |
make buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE |
| 1069 |
<maybe newfs current's root partition> |
| 1070 |
<mount current's root partition on directory ${CURRENT_ROOT}> |
| 1071 |
make installworld DESTDIR=${CURRENT_ROOT} |
| 1072 |
cd src/etc; make distribution DESTDIR=${CURRENT_ROOT} # if newfs'd |
| 1073 |
make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE DESTDIR=${CURRENT_ROOT} |
| 1074 |
cp /etc/fstab ${CURRENT_ROOT}/etc/fstab # if newfs'd |
| 1075 |
<edit ${CURRENT_ROOT}/etc/fstab to mount "/" from the correct partition> |
| 1076 |
<reboot into current> |
| 1077 |
<do a "native" rebuild/install as described in the previous section> |
| 1078 |
<maybe install compatibility libraries from src/lib/compat> |
| 1079 |
<reboot> |
| 1080 |
|
| 1081 |
|
| 1082 |
To upgrade in-place from 5.x-stable or higher to 6.x-stable |
| 1083 |
----------------------------------------------------------- |
| 1084 |
<make sure you have good level 0 dumps> |
| 1085 |
make buildworld [9] |
| 1086 |
make kernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE [8] |
| 1087 |
[1] |
| 1088 |
<reboot in single user> [3] |
| 1089 |
mergemaster -p [5] |
| 1090 |
make installworld |
| 1091 |
make delete-old |
| 1092 |
mergemaster -i [4] |
| 1093 |
<reboot> |
| 1094 |
|
| 1095 |
Make sure that you've read the UPDATING file to understand the |
| 1096 |
tweaks to various things you need. At this point in the life |
| 1097 |
cycle of current, things change often and you are on your own |
| 1098 |
to cope. The defaults can also change, so please read ALL of |
| 1099 |
the UPDATING entries. |
| 1100 |
|
| 1101 |
Also, if you are tracking -current, you must be subscribed to |
| 1102 |
freebsd-current@freebsd.org. Make sure that before you update |
| 1103 |
your sources that you have read and understood all the recent |
| 1104 |
messages there. If in doubt, please track -stable which has |
| 1105 |
much fewer pitfalls. |
| 1106 |
|
| 1107 |
[1] If you have third party modules, such as vmware, you |
| 1108 |
should disable them at this point so they don't crash your |
| 1109 |
system on reboot. |
| 1110 |
|
| 1111 |
[3] From the bootblocks, boot -s, and then do |
| 1112 |
fsck -p |
| 1113 |
mount -u / |
| 1114 |
mount -a |
| 1115 |
cd src |
| 1116 |
adjkerntz -i # if CMOS is wall time |
| 1117 |
Also, when doing a major release upgrade, it is required that |
| 1118 |
you boot into single user mode to do the installworld. |
| 1119 |
|
| 1120 |
[4] Note: This step is non-optional. Failure to do this step |
| 1121 |
can result in a significant reduction in the functionality of the |
| 1122 |
system. Attempting to do it by hand is not recommended and those |
| 1123 |
that pursue this avenue should read this file carefully, as well |
| 1124 |
as the archives of freebsd-current and freebsd-hackers mailing lists |
| 1125 |
for potential gotchas. |
| 1126 |
|
| 1127 |
[5] Usually this step is a noop. However, from time to time |
| 1128 |
you may need to do this if you get unknown user in the following |
| 1129 |
step. It never hurts to do it all the time. |
| 1130 |
|
| 1131 |
[8] In order to have a kernel that can run the 5.x binaries |
| 1132 |
needed to do an installworld, you must include the COMPAT_FREEBSD5 |
| 1133 |
option in your kernel. Failure to do so may leave you with a system |
| 1134 |
that is hard to boot to recover. A similar kernel option COMPAT_FREEBSD5 |
| 1135 |
is required to run the 5.x binaries on more recent kernels. |
| 1136 |
|
| 1137 |
Make sure that you merge any new devices from GENERIC since the |
| 1138 |
last time you updated your kernel config file. |
| 1139 |
|
| 1140 |
[9] When checking out sources, you must include the -P flag to have |
| 1141 |
cvs prune empty directories. |
| 1142 |
|
| 1143 |
If CPUTYPE is defined in your /etc/make.conf, make sure to use the |
| 1144 |
"?=" instead of the "=" assignment operator, so that buildworld can |
| 1145 |
override the CPUTYPE if it needs to. |
| 1146 |
|
| 1147 |
MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX must be defined in an environment variable, and |
| 1148 |
not on the command line, or in /etc/make.conf. buildworld will |
| 1149 |
warn if it is improperly defined. |
