Alternatively you could set the following line in > /etc/make.conf: > KERNCONF=ALEX-LAPTOP I did not think of kernconf having to be in upper-case letters, though that is how the handbook shows it (it never states that part has to be caps like the kernel name). > And then in /usr/src/ you only need to use 'make buildkernel' and 'make > installkernel'.

I was just trying to keep it like my hostname (alex-laptop.localhost). -- Yours in Christ, Joseph A Nagy Jr "Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge, But he who hates correction is stupid." -- Proverbs 12:1 Emails are not formal business letters, whatever businesses may want.
