The generally accepted sequence is: # make buildworld buildkernel KERNCONF=3DMILOWARE (or you can do those as separate make commands if you wish: makes no difference either way.) # make installkernel KERNCONF=3DMILOWARE # shutdown -r now (wait for the system to start coming back up, and interrupt the boot process at the 10 second countdown by hitting the 'any' key... Now, boot into single user mode. 'ok' is the prompt from the boot manager, which should give you a warm'n'cozy feeling if you're used to Sun hardware...) ok boot -s (Various output will scroll past. When prompted for what shell to run, just hit return) # fsck -p # swapon -a # mount -a # cd /usr/src # make installworld # mergemaster # reboot Et voila. One tip that's pretty useful is to stick the 'KERNCONF=3DMILOWARE' bit into your /etc/make.conf file. That way you don't need to keep typing it on the command line.
