I updated the NetBSD-current sources on my @linveo VPS. Thanks @linveo!

linveo# date
linveo# cd /usr/src
linveo# export CVS_RSH="ssh"
linveo# cvs update -A -dP
linveo# cd ../xsrc
linveo# cvs update -A -dP
linveo# cd /usr/src
linveo# less UPDATING

I also rebuilt the NetBSD-current userland.

Next up is rebuilding the kernel and the X Window System. Then backup, install the new kernel, and reboot,

Finally, install the new userland and the new X. Then a final reboot to make sure that it can.

What am I missing?

Here is the Summary of the kernel rebuild.

@Not_Oles said:

build.sh command: ./build.sh -j 2 -O ../obj -r -T ../tools -U distribution

Nope!

I forgot the -x flag to add X Windows!

So, probably, something like

build.sh command: ./build.sh -j 2 -O ../obj -r -T ../tools -U -x distribution

might work.

Not_Oles · 4:48AM

Okay, done with the X Window System enabled distribution build.

I think I wouldn't have to rebuild the kernel again, right?

Well . . . I did build the kernel again. . . .

I'm not sure whether having the "-x" flag in the kernel build changes anything. But it might.

Tomorrow, maybe we will see if the VPS reboots with the newly updated and recompiled kernel.

Thanks to @linveo for lots of NetBSD fun, and for very fast builds!
