Yes, has this changed? should I not have been root?

./scripts/Create-ErrList -cfg bootdisk

Error logs from bootdisk-2.0.0-x86-i486-32-bootdisk-expert:

  [2] 968 base/binutils

153 builds total, 47 completed fine, 1 with errors.

That is the only one, the very first one in stage 2.

On trying to restart the build just now (via ssh again) I notice:

./scripts/Build-Target -cfg bootdisk &> bootdisk.build.log2 &
[1] 26425
root at mackintoshweb:[RockBuildArea/rock-src-2.0.0]# cat bootdisk.build.log2

Removing old error logs ...
-> Removing var/adm/logs/2-binutils.err ...
./scripts/Build-Pkg: line 308: /etc/profile: No such file or directory

== 15:49:29 =[2]=> Building base/binutils [2.14.90.0.8 2.0.0].
-> Reading package configuration from package directory.
-> Preparing build in src.binutils.1080334160.26512.2693546792

So some earlyer files are missing from <root>/etc ?

root at mackintoshweb:[-32-bootdisk-expert/root/etc]# ls
conf  cron.d  cron.daily  diet.ld.conf  fdprm  init.d  iproute2 
ld.so.cache  ld.so.conf  mtab  network  opt  profile.d  rc.d  rpc  skel 
  stone.d  wgetrc
root at mackintoshweb:[-32-bootdisk-expert/root/etc]#

Is that all there should be or are things missing?

Thanks
