I am having trouble compiling the system and kernel for 10.1-RELEASE on my server. It exits with a failure on the base compilation and kernel. As a solution I compiled everything on another system then tarball the whole src tree. However, when I go to install the kernel via #make installkernel, it complains that no kernel has been compiled (even though it was before I changed systems). Now the only thing that comes to mind is that this is an AMD64 system. Maybe the install scripts know this and want to install a customized kernel for AMD64. However, I only compiled the generic kernel. However, that is what is running the system now, an i386 generic kernel. I prefer src installs because of the mergemaster stages. I like how quickly I can merge files with it. I have found an article about converting a system to AMD64, but it was a bit on the old side. I am not sure if it was still relevant. It was written circa 9.0. Appreciate the help, I spent about six hours trying my own little fixes to no avail. Regards, Chris Maness
