This brings up an interesting question. In the FreeBSD FAQ it says that to rebuild the kernel one does: 6.0.1: cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf 6.0.2: cp GENERIC MYKERNEL 6.0.3: vi MYKERNEL 6.0.4: config MYKERNEL 6.0.5: cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL 6.0.6: make all 6.0.7: make install 6.0.8: reboot Does this mean that no make depend is necessary, or that make depend is implied as part of step 6.0.4? Maybe an update to the FAQ is necessary, or else the new config program is correct. Cheers, -Wes
