FreeBSD 6.2, no /usr/src/tools and /usr/src/usr.bin, failed to build world.

I read the FreeBSD handbook for sections on rebuilding the "world".

#cd /usr/src
#make buildworld

The output was like this:

Code:

cd: can't cd to /usr/src/tools/build/make_check

--------------------------------------------------------------
>>> Building an up-to-date make(1)
--------------------------------------------------------------
cd: can't cd to /usr/src/usr.bin/make
*** Error code 2

Stop in /usr/src.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src.

I dont have the directories /usr/src/tools and /usr/src/usr.bin, as i think i should have. That's the problem, right?

This is the output when i listed my /usr/src directory:

Code:

COPYRIGHT               Makefile                README
LOCKS                   Makefile.inc1           UPDATING
MAINTAINERS             ObsoleteFiles.inc       sys

When installing FreeBSD, I chose a minimal system, and then later i installed what i needed from ports. When i recompiled the kernel for the first time, i didnt have the kernel source, and had to copy that from the CD (following the handbook's instructions). Now is it the same thing that I have to do? Where can I those absent files?

Thank you very much

Hey there.

I don't use FreeBSD any more but as far as I remember, you insert the CD, then as root type some command like:

Code:

#sysinstall

, then choose to install sources from the cd. I'm not sure if what i remember is exact. You can do a search on google on how to "make buildworld".

This was FreeBSD 6.2

Hi.

Thank You for help.

I use:
#sysinstall
then:
configure -> distribution -> src - All

and then was ok.

Best regards
Robert.
