The following reply was made to PR docs/150124; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Johann Kois <jkois@FreeBSD.org> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, blahbleh666@hotmail.com Cc: Subject: Re: docs/150124: Request for update of "building the kernel" section of the handbook Date: Thu, 28 Oct 2010 23:42:48 +0000 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Well, as a matter of fact you DO need all the sources to build a custom kernel (this has been changed some time ago). And http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig-building.html is telling you that (as a note, maybe it should be a warning and at the beginning of this section): "Note: It is required to have full FreeBSD source tree to build the kernel."
