Kernel Rebuild error

Hi All,

While installing a Service Pack on my Unix Solaris machine, i got the following error:

UX:acomp: ERROR: "space.c", line 16: undefined symbol: CHROOT_SECURITY
UX:acomp: ERROR: "space.c", line 16: non-constant initializer: op "NAME"
UX:idmkunix: ERROR: Compile/link of 'Driver_atup.o space.c' for fs module failed.
Exit code = 256

The UNIX operating system did not build correctly after the update.
After this error the installation aborted. Please advice me on how i can re-build the kernel properly.

Thanks,
Am

Usually when that error appears on a relink means that the installating screw it all, so my best advice, backp all information, if the kernel doesn't boot, then use on boot: unix.old which is the last kernel before relink, so if you had a media to backup just use it, later must reinstall the SO, when i got that error I usually do this, because it's more difficult to recover the kenel and the files space.c and all others that screw the kernel, hope it helps you
