I just recently asked about the issue I was having when I last tried to run head/sys/arm/conf/CHROMEBOOK-SNOW which iirc is a derived from head/sys/arm/conf/EXYNOS5420 which is documented in the Wiki as to how to build it, pointing to use the kernel config you just deleted. > > Svatopluk Kraus > > > > > > > > On Wed, Apr 10, 2019 at 9:27 PM Emmanuel Vadot wrote: > > > > > > Author: manu > > > Date: Wed Apr 10 19:27:14 2019 > > > New Revision: 346096 > > > URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/346096 > > > > > > Log: > > > arm: kernel: Remove old kernel configs > > > > > > Follow up to r346095 > > > All those kernels are either not working or the release have switched > > > to GENERIC > > > > > > Deleted: > > > head/sys/arm/conf/AML8726 > > > head/sys/arm/conf/BEAGLEBONE > > > head/sys/arm/conf/CHROMEBOOK > > > head/sys/arm/conf/CHROMEBOOK-PEACH-PIT > > > head/sys/arm/conf/CHROMEBOOK-PEACH-PIT.hints > > > head/sys/arm/conf/CHROMEBOOK-SNOW > > > head/sys/arm/conf/CHROMEBOOK-SPRING > > > head/sys/arm/conf/CHROMEBOOK.hints > > > head/sys/arm/conf/EXYNOS5.common > > > head/sys/arm/conf/EXYNOS5250 > > > head/sys/arm/conf/EXYNOS5420 > > > head/sys/arm/conf/ODROIDC1 > > > head/sys/arm/conf/PANDABOARD > > > head/sys/arm/conf/PANDABOARD.hints > > > head/sys/arm/conf/RADXA > > > head/sys/arm/conf/RADXA-LITE > > > head/sys/arm/conf/RK3188 > > > head/sys/arm/conf/RPI2 > > > > > > -- > Emmanuel Vadot > > -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@freebsd.org
