Generally, I do the following: # cd /usr # mv src src-current # mkdir src # cd src # for i in /usr/src-current/* > do > ln -s $i . > done # rm sys # ln -s /b/src-smp/sys . Now /sys pounts to /usr/src/sys points to /b/src-smp/sys. Now I build everything, and everything gets their sys files from the SMP tree instead of the current tree. When I build the lkm's and 'ps' and 'w' and 'ifconfig', etc., etc., which all depend on kernel files, they build with the SMP headers instead of the -current headers. Everything then "just works".
