I started out with: To build a kernel ----------------- Update config, genassym and go: cd src/usr.bin/genassym make depend all install clean This crashed when I ran 'make depend...' I then realized I wasn't supposed to start here I was supposed to start with: To update from 3.x to 4.0 stable -------------------------------- cd /usr/src make buildworld cd sbin/mknod make install So, this all went fine until I tried to config my kernel. I ran /usr/sbin/config COMPUTER_NAME I got the error on the subject line. I read in the fbsd mail archives that I was supposed to do at make install world in /usr/src. Can someone please explain to me what I'm doing wrong? I searched the archives and found I was supposed to look in UPDATING to figure out how to upgrade to 4.0. Thanks for any help you can throw my way.
