We have 2 ways of building kernels: the make world way, and the "config"
way.

One involves "cd /usr/src ; make buildkernel" and the other:

cd /sys/${ARCH}/conf
config ${KERNCONF}
cd ../../compile/${KERNCONF}
make depend
make

Now, currently, the kernel target in floppies/Makefile uses the first
strategy, I *think*. Actually, it's doing:

	cd ${SRC} && ${MAKE} KERNEL=${CONFFILE} NO_MODULES=yes all

which is rather odd. Should that be:

	cd ${SRC} && ${MAKE} KERNEL=${CONFFILE} NO_MODULES=yes buildkernel

?

And I think the user should be able to use the second method, as it
doesn't require a populated obj/...

A.
