sounds nice .... but i think its rather 1.5A, 1.5B or 1.5C if its
-current....

sounds like you need to do a `make includes' in /usr/src/sys first ... the
include files in /usr/include/sys etc. are updated it seems ... also it is
good to completely delete the compiling directory i.e.

The .depend is only in the compile directory itself ... so you should (i
guess you allready know this but for completion ....)
i.e. :


rm -r /usr/src/sys/arch/arm32/compile/MYSYS
cd /usr/src/sys/arch/arm32/conf
config MYSYS
cd ../compile/MYSYS
make depend
make

and copy the `netbsd' file to /netbsd

Well better complete than sorry... and maybe its of use for others reading
this thread :)) .... I myself run a 1.4Y or so on my arm32 machine but run
1.5B on my sparc and thats running ok ... dont forget though that the
transition is a bit rough :(( ... and i still have some problems in
userland.... wich i will send-pr later

Take care,
Reinoud
