When I decided to make the move to 4.0, I used RELENG_4_0_0_RELEASE instead. After the update completed, I checked /usr/src/UPDATING for the 3.4 -> 4.0 "recipe" that has been publicized on this list. In a previous post to this list, Eric Ogren stated that the kernel should be built with "make buildkernel KERNEL=GENERIC". I do not see this anywhere in the UPDATING file. Rather, mine would have me build the kernel with the old "config GENERIC ; cd ../../compile/GENERIC ; make depend && make" at this point This leads me to the obvious question: Am I using the right branch name/tag in my supfile, or is the corrected version of UPDATING on CURRENT?
