Okay, here's the scenario along with previous mail from helpers: 



For a few days I've been trying to rebuild my kernel, as I want to add
sound support for SB PCI128. I'm running FreeBSD 4.4 RELEASE. I copy
GENERIC, added device pcm, did config -r MYKERNEL, make depend, make,
and during make it stops with the following error:

 @ -> /usr/src/sys
ln: @/sys: File exists
*** Error code 1

I have no clue why it's doing this. help!! :)
Thanks, Ryan


Answer:



Try:

cd /usr/src
make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL
make installkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL

what happened:


> I tried that too.... same error :\ any other suggestions?

Make sure your kern_securelevel is set to -1 (see /etc/defaults/rc.conf)
Try nuking everything inside your /usr/obj
Then do a make buildworld
The kernel should compile after that.

Quesion:


 did the make buildworld and installworld... and tried to compile my
source again...
and still I get the same error :( any ideas?
Cheers, ryan
