Colin, would I be able to build an updated RELEASE in the AMI maker before I= call mkami? In the days of 11.1 I had to recompile the kernel to use your p= atch (many thanks!) and so I did something like this: $ svnlite --non-interactive --trust-server-cert-failures=3Dunknown-ca co htt= ps://svn.freebsd.org/base/releng/11.1/ /usr/src/ $ make DESTDIR=3D/mnt kernel -j16 I am not sure what magic is being done by the AMI maker itself to /mnt. I wo= nder if I could use this approach to build the kernel using the latest patch= ed release of ARM, at least until it moves to Tier 1. Would I need to build t= he userland, too? Or are the security patches installed by freebsd-update on= ly affecting the kernel? Thanks for your help, as always. Rafal -- Rafal Lukawiecki Data Scientist=20 Project Botticelli Ltd=
