installworld fails with "touch: not found"

[Thorny]

Hello,

i've got a new root-server and installed FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE on it. Then i want to create a jail, got the source and run make buildworld. All works, until the make installworld. It ends with:

===> gnu/usr.bin/texinfo/doc (install)
install-info --quiet  --defsection=Miscellaneous  --defentry=  info.info /usr/local/jail/unheiliges//usr/share/info/dir
install-info --quiet  --defsection=Miscellaneous  --defentry=  info-stnd.info /usr/local/jail/unheiliges//usr/share/info/dir
install-info --quiet  --defsection=Miscellaneous  --defentry=  texinfo.info /usr/local/jail/unheiliges//usr/share/info/dir
install -o root -g wheel -m 444  info.info.gz info-stnd.info.gz texinfo.info.gz /usr/local/jail/unheiliges//usr/share/info
===> include (install)
creating osreldate.h from newvers.sh
touch: not found
*** Error code 127

I noticed the handbook-section:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/troubleshoot.html#TOUCH-NOT-FOUND
But it's hard to boot into single-mode because the server is far away Has somebody an idea to work around this problem?

Greetings from Germany,

Set the correct timezone with tzsetup(8) and sync your clock with ntpdate(8). Then clean and do a buildworld again. That should make sure the times are all correct.

Thanks, that worked!
