Then I did a makeworld and makeinstall. I also compiled a custom kernel. All the steps went fine, no errors of any kind, but when I typed make install (for the kernel) I received a message that said I should ensure my /boot/loader can handle ELF kernels. I went ahead and did the make -DFORCE install and rebooted. Needless to say, I cannot boot with the kernel I made, however I can boot kernel.GENERIC. Is 3.0 an ELF system? I was under the impression that it was. Also, is the system I just made buy CVSUPing and rebuilding an ELF system? Just out curiosity I made a simple C program and compiled it. I got an a.out binary. I have seen many references on the web site to commands like aout-to-elf and such. Is this a step I have to perform?
