Hello,

I've been an avid FreeBSD user for about a year, and am finally trying to build my customer kernel.  I am by no means a computer expert, and have found the handbook to be extremely useful.  I've followed the directions in the latest version of the FreeBSD Handbook (I've re-installed my PC with the latest stable version of FreeBSD as well).  However, when I build the kernel, it chews it over for some time, scrolling tons of text.  Then I get the following message.  I've placed comments after '#' for some explanations

umass.o(.text+0xNNNN): undefined reference to 'xpt_XXXX)    # where NNNN is a combination of letters/numbers and XXXX is a word, usually 'done'.  Using the scroll lock key and looking back, I see dozens of similar lines.

***Error code 1

Stop in /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/DM1    # DM1 is the name of my kernel
****Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src
***Error code 1

and I get a command line again.  

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Brent Marsh
