>Description:
In handbook chapter Diskless Operation, Using make world to populate root (31.7.2.7.1) the example script doesn't include "make installworld && make installkernel". Without it the root isn't really populated.
Link today: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/network-diskless.html#AEN43233
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Imho the script should read:
#!/bin/sh
export DESTDIR=/data/misc/diskless
mkdir -p ${DESTDIR}
cd /usr/src
make buildworld && make buildkernel
make installworld && make installkernel
cd /usr/src/etc; make distribution
