Building a Kernel the ``New'' Way Change to the /usr/src directory. # cd /usr/src Compile the kernel. # make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL Install the new kernel. # make installkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL But I don't know, because elder OLDCARD was bigger, actually that was like GENERIC. But in 5.2 he isn't so big, only 17 lines http://fxr.watson.org/fxr/source/i386/conf/OLDCARD?v=RELENG52 So I don't know, can I really do this with that new OLDCARD??? -- Отправлено M2, революционной почтовой программой Opera: http://www.opera.com/
