Quoting Stephen Krauth <stephenk@stephenk.com>: [000912 20:05]: Stephen Krauth>Uh... since I can't even compile the GENERIC kernel, it seems unnecessary Stephen Krauth>to send the kernel config file I was tweaking.

Stephen Krauth> Stephen Krauth>Anyway, the error messages from make "buildkernel KERNEL=GENERIC" are Stephen Krauth>below. Any help will be appreciated... Why are you recompiling the kernel? Is it after a cvsup? I assume you were going -STABLE. If that is so then /usr/src/UPDATING says that you have to cd /usr/src make buildworld Then make buildkernel KERNEL= GENERIC && make installkernel KERNEL=GENERIC After that there is the going into single user mode bit shutdown -r now boot -s mount -u / mount -a -t ufs swapon -a cd /usr/src make installworld cd /dev ./MAKEDEV all cd /usr/src/release/sysinstall make clean make all install Then reboot to multi user mode... kernel compile also failed for me when I tried it before make buildworld!!
