I have a new version of 4.0-Stable running. The buildkernel/installkernel sequence worked. Thinking of it as a crosscompile made sense since I hadn't done a installworld before configing and making the kernel. My sequence was 1 make buildworld configing and trying to make a kernel didn't work here. 2 make buildkernel KERNEL=OPAL 3 make installkernel KERNEL=OPAL 4 reboot to single user mode with /OPAL -s 4a saved /kernel and moved /OPAL to /kernel and all of the chflags. 5 make installworld 6 mergemaster 7 cd /dev and did a ./MAKEDEV all just in case :) 8 reboot I don't know if some of these steps were overkill but they worked. There are obvious cd's missing. Kent > > Lint^^ > > On Fri, 7 Jul 2000, Chad R. Larson wrote: > > > As I recall, Warner Losh wrote: > > > How are you building the new kernel?
