Your wrote "That's the number of times you've compiled your kernel without cleaning the old config directory up first. The way to clean it depends on how you're compiling your kernel." Could you please elaborate? How do I clean out the config directory to reset the counter to zero for both methods of compiling new kernels?

That's the number of times you've compiled your kernel without cleaning the old config directory up first. The way to clean it depends on how you're compiling your kernel. Also, adding to and recompiling GENERIC probably isn't the best idea. Please read the kernel compilation section of the handbook. - jim -- jim mock <mij@soupnazi.org> jim@FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
