You will need a new version of config to build kernels (this version can be used from 8.0-RELEASE forward). The buildworld target will generate it, so following the instructions in this file for updating will work glitch-free. Merely doing a make buildkernel without first doing a make buildworld (or kernel-toolchain), or attempting to build a kernel using traidtional methods will generate a config version warning, indicating you should update. Stefan's kernel looks to have last been built on 20th February 2010. It isn't explicit in the first posting of this thread how Stefan is doing his build, so there is a possibility that he's being affected by the above UPDATING entry. Cheers, Paul.
