hello, world\n
I'm looking at the 4.2-R Handbook,
file:/usr/share/doc/handbook/kernelconfig-building.html
This chapter probably needs updating for latest kernels, in particular
# cd /usr/src
# make buildkernel KERNEL=MYKERNEL
# make installkernel KERNEL=MYKERNEL
needs KERNCONF instead of KERNEL. And you should also add a paragraph
on /boot/device.hints because without it this is what happens:
root@hal9000:/usr/src # make installkernel KERNCONF=HAL9000
cd /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/HAL9000; MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX=/usr/obj COMPILER_PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/usr/libexec:/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/usr/bin LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/usr/lib:/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/usr/lib OBJFORMAT_PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/usr/libexec PERL5LIB=/usr/obj/usr/src/i386/usr/libdata/perl/5.6.0 MACHINE=i386 make KERNEL=kernel install
You must set up a /boot/device.hints file first.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/HAL9000.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/src.
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/src.
PS: I'm upgrading from 4.2-R to a -current system, and this may well be
not the scope of the 4.2-R handbook chapters; in this case feel free to
ignore this mail :-)
Regards,
Jens
