Hi,

I switched from 14.3 to 15.0-STABLE recently, and I do compile world and kernel from source.

My kernel config is customized:

	ident CUSTOM
	include GENERIC
	include "../../conf/std.nodebug"
	device gre

This kernel is built as all the years before, and I can see it:

	root> ls -l /usr/obj/usr/src/arm64.aarch64/sys/
	drwxr-xr-x   3 root wheel 4192 Sep 22 08:42 CUSTOM

But uname reports the kernel to be GENERIC:

	root> uname -i
	GENERIC

	root> uname -a
	FreeBSD mer-waases.net 15.0-ALPHA3 FreeBSD 15.0-ALPHA3 #2 stable/15-n280239-78b179fe9280-dirty: Mon Sep 22 08:42:11 \
	CEST 2025     root@xxx:/usr/obj/usr/src/arm64.aarch64/sys/GENERIC arm64


Where should I start to search, and, is anyone else observing the same?

Regards,
Michael
