Hi, as subject - is building kernel in /sys/amd64/conf depreciated? I can get a modified kernel to build and install in /usr/src but not in /sys/amd64/conf. I always used to be able to do this in there, then again I either used -RELEASE or -STABLE. I used to do it like this: 1. cd /sys/amd64/conf 2. cp GENERIC MYKERNEL 3. [make changes to MYKERNEL and save] 4. config MYKERNEL 5. cd ../compile/MYKERNEL 6. make cleandepend && make depend && make This fails *every time* during make. It fails at this point: Make[1]: "/storage/usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk" line 1204: UNAME_r (11.0-CURRENT) and OSVERSION () do not agree on major version number. *** [all] Error code 1 make: stopped in /storage/usr/src/sys/amd64/compile/PUMPKIN The error still happens if I refresh all my sources, build a new world with a generic kernel and reboot and then try the old method again. I *can* build a custom kernel if I cd into /usr/src and do 1. make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL 2. make installkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL Basically I'm asking is this change of behaviour documented and/or am I doing it wrong? thanks, -- John
