I am building my custom kernel, config file for one machine is FOX. I put KERNCONF="FOX" into my /etc/make.conf, make buildkernel in /usr/src tells ERROR: Missing kernel configuration file(s) (FOX). If I change it into KERNCONF=FOX, no error message and build works as if command make buildkernel KERNCONF=FOX were given. My understanding was variable values should be enclosed in quotes, did I missread or missinterpret something? Even if it is no real issue (read: could not find simple workaround), I would like to know if it's me or not. Regards, Milan -- Address this mail is sent from is used only for this mailing list.
