Often times the error message will tell you exactly what you did wrong (Note: trace back up the list of error codes until you get an actual message - in order to find the original error that cause all the others) If you get a whole bunch of errors, you may want to save the output from the compile in a file to review later, like this: make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL > buildkernel.txt -Bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
