Known-good build for embedded / wrap

pfcomm

Hi all,

I'm new to pfsense but long-time m0n0 developer.

Having tried the development ISO (and being able to build a real ISO for RELENG_6_2), I tried compiling both RELENG_6_2 and RELENG_6_1 for embedded (build_embedded.sh)…. and they both fail early in the process.

Something went wrong, check errors!

Is there a known-good configuration/tag that I can use to build an embedded image on which to experiment some patches?

Any help will be greatly appreciated (as I've been reading scripts for the last 5 days… and still have no grasp on the freesbie compile process).

Shall I start with a clean BSD install (instead of the developer image I'm using now)?

Thank you!

Check the developers related section of http://wiki.pfsense.com/wikka.php?wakka=pfSenseHome . You'll find build instructions there as well.

I'm currently following http://wiki.pfsense.com/wikka.php?wakka=BuildingpFSense and building world on a clean 6.1 install with RELENG_6. I will know tomorrow if it works :)

Does this mean that the developer iso shall not be used for builds?
It seems that some of the patches for pfsense are not up-to-date with the RELENG version or perhaps they're not being applied.
Do I need to set freebsd_branch to RELENG_6, 6_1 or 6_2 with the current CVS of pfsense ?

Sorry for being too noisy… I hope I'll have enough info to start doing something usefull.

The developers iso should just work. pfSense uses FreeBSD 6.2 now.

Ok, I tried with RELENG_6_2, updated my build still no go… I think I'll post my configuration files here for reference....

Ok… success (compiling) at last. Reading some more build scripts I found that some of the information from the wiki si somehow outdated...

That is, cvsup_current uses the files in the buildlder_scripts directory and not /etc/current-supfile as stated:

cvsup -h cat /var/db/fastest_cvsup ./${freebsd_branch}-supfile
cvsup -h cat /var/db/fastest_cvsup ./ports-supfile

Also the CVS version of pfSense to checkout during build is in /home/pfsense/tools/builder_scripts/pfSense-supfile (used with cvsup pfSense-supfile).

One last thing... SKIP_CHECKOUT is somewhat not operational... I can see the comments in builder_common.sh but it is never utilized... so I just commented out update_cvs_depot from build_xxx.sh.

You might create a wiki account and update the docs when you have a chance. Thanks
