| Subject: | Re: HEADS UP! Always use the 'make buildkernel' target to make yer kernels | |

[snip]
1. If you have updated your sources, the process of building a kernel may depend on which version of certain tools may be installed. Therefore, the only safe way to build a kernel on such a machine is to do the following:
make buildworld make buildkernel make installkernel shutdown (drop into single-user mode) make installworld mergemaster reboot
These steps require that you have defined "KERNEL=WHATEVER" in /etc/make.conf. If you have not, you will need to add "kernel=WHATEVER" to the "make installkernel" command above. This will install the kernel /WHATEVER, and you will need to have "kernel=/WHATEVER" in /etc/bootloader.conf.
2. If you have not updated your sources and just want to rebuild the kernel with the sources you already have, use the standard procedure:
config WHATEVER cd ../../compile/WHATEVER make depend make make install
Note that the steps given in #1 above will install a copy of the GENERIC kernel. If you have a customized kernel, you'll need to follow those instructions to install the GENERIC kernel, and then follow the steps in #2 above to install your customized kernel.
This last paragraph sound wrong to me. If you've defined 'KERNEL=SOMETHING', then it will build the kernel defined by the SOMETHING config file, and _not_ GENERIC.
We might also want to include the specifics of the 'chflags' commands that need to be issued for those that prefer not to modify /boot/loader.conf and have the kernel named 'kernel'.
Cheers, Bryan
