So I'm trying to build FreeBSD from source

So I'm trying to build a slightly modified (by me) FreeBSD from source.

Basically, I took the code, changed some stuff (deleted folders I thought were unnecessary bc because I wanna try to get it to bare-bones and then build my own shell on-top of it), put it in an ISO, mounted it and ran:

Code:
make install makefile

which returned:

Does anybody know how to fix this?


[I'm a noob plz pleaase don't bully me]
 
The error is pretty obvious, you're missing Makefile.inc1.
 
What should make install makefile mean? Do you have any reference for that command?

As for "stripping down", read src.conf(5). Just deleting stuff to avoid building it won't work.

Additionally, you might want to read these manual pages:
  • build(7) – information on how to build the system from source.
  • tests(7) – introduction to the FreeBSD Test Suite (useful to detect problems when you modify the source tree).
  • release(7) – release building infrastructure (useful if you want to create your own release ISO image or similar).
