    Hmm.  This is a new one to me.  I am assuming that you did
    a cvs checkout of the sources into /usr/src before attempting to
    run the buildworld.   The Mini ISO that you downloaded is from November
    2nd, it's possible that it snapshotted the kernel at a bad time.
    Probably the easiest way to bootstrap into DragonFly, especially if
    you are on a modem, is to start with a FreeBSD-4.x CD (I'm hoping you
    have one) and do a FreeBSD install.  Then get cvsup and cvsup down
    the DragonFly CVS tree.  After that you should be able to checkout the
    DragonFly src and do a buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel, 
    installworld sequence.
With all the restructuring done in DF, want this leave a ton of stray 
crap on the system?
