Hi all,

I'm new to FreeBSD and this is my first attempt at building a kernel.

I would like to know if I am going about it the right way (and some help on 
an error message that appears).

Below are the steps that I am currently taking.  I am following the steps in 
the Handbook (Cutting Edge & Building and Installing a custom Kernel).

    Run CVSup and updated my source tree
    Run make buildworld
    Run make installworld
    Copy GENERIC to MYKERNEL
    Edit MYKERNEL
    Run make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL
    Run make installkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL

Everything works fine upto make buildkernel.  If I run this, even on an 
uneditted copy of GENERIC, I get an error saying:

    make: don't know how to make uart_bus_pccard.c. Stop
    *** Error code 2 ***

I've entered the error into Google, but it returned no items and I'm at a 
loss (which isn't difficult).

Any ideas on what it's talking about?

Thanks for your help

Mark
