Yes, you are of course right about that, I think I made this mistake once before a long time ago and caused a great mess. BUT, even though I've done this stupid thing, why does "make installworld" apparently run to completion (w/o a single peep or complaint), but not actually DO anything? The binaries associated with the "make kernel" are all newer than the stuff from "make world", so this should look like I'm starting out on a new kernel build, no?
