I am having some trouble making a correct kernel.
i do this

cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf

config mykernel

cd ../../compile/mykernel

make depend

cd /usr/src

make buildkernel KERNELCONF=mykernel

I notice its building GENERIC....

I think its because i didnt change the kernel name in mykernel.

i try to install it.

make installkernel KERNEL=mykernel

and it stops saying it cant find some sound files and such

thinking its because the generic kernel dont have sound built in.

so i always end up building my kernel with

make buildkernel KERNEL=mykernel

and it says i need to change to KERNELCONF but it builds the right one now.

 

so where am i going wrong here.
