Well after seeing all the discussion on using make buildkernel KERNEL=BLAH I decided I would try it too. :-) Just to see what it does. Lo and behold, it builds my kernel. I than even did a make installkernel KERNEL=BLAH (which actually installs my kernel as /BLAH instead of /kernel). I even managed to boot it, and my system comes up to the point of loading the linux kernel module for linux binary compatibility and than it reboots. This went on for like 4 hours before I walked back in to see what was going on. So it appears that there is something quite different here than just doing a standard kernel install, it also rebuilds and installs all the kernel modules. So is the linux.ko kernel module really broken?
