Quick question.
I am running FreeBSD 4.4.
I comfortable building the kernel "the old way" but in the FreeBSD handbook
there is the "new way", which is described below. There appears to be no
support for buildkernel anywhere, please point me in the right direction.
Thank you in advance!
Procedure 2. Building a kernel the ``new'' way
1.. Change to the /usr/src directory
# cd /usr/src
2.. Compile the kernel.
# make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL
3.. Install the new kernel.
# make installkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL
Note: In FreeBSD 4.2 and older you must replace KERNCONF= with KERNEL=.
4.2-STABLE that was fetched after Feb 2nd, 2001 does recognize KERNCONF=
