Hi Folks,
I recently upgraded a 4.4 system to 4.5. I followed the Upgrade Guide, not using
sysmerge. The upgrade went more-or-less ok. After that, I wanted to install
the five patches on the 4.5 errata page.
I copied src.tar.gz and sys.tar.gz (for v4.5) from a mirror, unpacked them in
/usr/src, applied the first patch (libssl) and my make failed at some point with
errors. I removed the /usr/src tree, and created it again from scratch.
I tried the make again (without applying patch) and it failed again, so I
concluded I need to sync with CVS. This seems weird. I would have thought the
src/sys tars would be clean...
I updated the tree from CVS using:
cd /usr/src && cvs up -r OPENBSD_4_5_BASE -Pd
as documented in release(8).
I repeated my attempt to make libssl, which was successful. I applied the rest
of the patches, (aucat and 3 kernel patches), built a new kernel (GENERIC.MP),
installed it, and rebooted.
First I had to figure out that /sbin/ifconfig was hosed and rebuilt it. (it got
hosed/installed when I did the "make install" for /usr/src/sbin after building
libssl. I'm not sure why.)
Now I get the following messages at boot (10 repetitions):
sysctl: fourth level name dad_pending in net.inet6.ip6.dad_pending is invalid
which is in the v4.5 /etc/netstart script. According to a mail from Stuard
Henderson, this means my kernel and userland are out of sync. It's not clear to
me how this could be, as /etc/netstart is v4.5 and the src/sys sources I used
also.
Can someone shed some light on this problem?
thanks,
Rob Urban
