kvm_mkdb fails to produce symbol file possibly due to arch mismatch? #31

Closed synthesizerpatel closed 10 years ago

synthesizerpatel commented 10 years ago

I'll say up front, this may be a 'me' problem rather than a 'you' problem, I am working on a 5.4 amd64 based system attempting to produce a 5.4 i386 flashboot image.

When the kvm_mkdb step of 'list' runs, it complains that it can't find an executable - I'm guessing this is because of the arch differences but I have so far been unable to find any documentation that would explain this.

Otherwise it seems like everything seems to work - it actually does produce the bsd image (and I'm pretty confident that it's producing the filesystem et all correctly.

I haven't tried compiling for MIPS or anything else yet however, so if one of those works I'll update here.

Otherwise, great stuff - you've saved me a lot of boilerplate effort! Thanks!

This is not supported. You must compile from the same system as the target system.
