Solved Make Installworld Fails On 9.3 -> 10.4 Upgrade

[610Drew]

I have a physical box that's currently on 9.3. My goal is to get it up to 12.1. Following best practice, I'm currently trying to upgrade to 10.4. The buildworld, buildkernel, and installkernel completed without error. I've rebooted after the install kernel and am now trying to installworld. Here's the output:

Stop in /usr/src_10.4.

How can I resolve this?

Thanks,

Same error on installworld in Thread 31546 (with fix):

...
install -o root -g wheel -m 444   libc_pic.a /usr/lib
gencat be_BY.UTF-8.cat /usr/src/lib/libc/nls/be_BY.UTF-8.msg
gencat:No such file or directory

A deleting and re-csupping of the entire /usr/src directory fixed things.

It was suggested to me in another thread regarding issues updating another machine to use freebsd-update and save myself a lot of headache. Thus, I did and am now running 12.1-p10.

Thank you for your assistance!

Cheers,

Drew
