In message <Pine.BSF.4.21.0003161151590.63685-100000@freefall.freebsd.org> Kris Kennaway writes: : I still think we should be recommending people use 'make buildkernel' to : build GENERIC and minimize the possibility of foot-shooting from a stupid : config file which then gets blamed on 4.0 itself. Besides, I tried to : rebuild my kernel from 3.4 using 'config' et al, but it didn't compile : because the PATH was wrong and it was using the 3.x compiler/linker. I agree with this. I think that creating /GENERIC isn't a big deal and I kinda like it. It is certainly less confusing than some of the alternatives.
