Make buildkernel KERNCONF=CONFIG Make installkernel KERNCONF=CONFIG This is enough for only compiling kernel and not world and this is the Smartest way according to FreeBSD handbook. -- Thomas Gouverneur Junior UNIX Administrator TI Automotive -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-stable@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-stable@freebsd.org] On Behalf Of Pete French Sent: mardi 26 septembre 2006 12:24 To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Subject: Building a kernel with config ? > On Mon, 25 Sep 2006 11:34:42 -0700, "Kevin Oberman" <oberman@es.net> wrote: > >2.

Build a kernel with: > cd /usr/src > make buildkernel I was not aware that you wern't supposed to use config anymore - and I am not convinced that the suggested alternative is actually a replacement as I thought that buildkernel required you to have built the world first ? Is this no longer true ? If it *is* true thhen what is the alternative to using 'config' which should be used if you are on a system where you do not have the time or the disc space to rebuild the world and simply want to recompile the kernel ? -pete. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" The information contained in this transmission may contain privileged and confidential information.
