Description Enji Cooper freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2012-07-27 17:00:18 UTC
More than a handful of people have lost a few hours time trying to create CD ISOs because they're using the old method of doing the release process (one example is: [1]).

How-To-Repeat: cd release; make cdrom

This will remove the release directory from install media which might
be undesirable.

My guess (and it's just a guess right now) is that it's a variable
that's being passed on the command line that's being appended to,
instead of it being passed in the environment (example: see
MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX in src/Makefile). Which is why I wanted the exact
command -- do determine whether or not it was that class of user error
that wasn't being properly handled.

Thanks,
-Garrett

Hello.
I've just made:

make toolchain
make -DNO_CLEAN buildkernel
make -DNO_CLEAN buildworld
cd release
make cdrom

I made it on

FreeBSD XX 8.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE #2 r234443: Thu Apr 19 
10:24:05 MSK 2012     alp@XX:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MyKern  amd64

if it matters.

No, this will remove the /usr/obj/usr/src/release directory, which is
where the packaging of the distribution files takes place.
