much earlier, i was having some questions about building a new kernel,
considering the documentation about the kernel rebuilding processes is not
very good. (Sections 9 and 21 should be combined instead of isolated,
imho.)
the steps that were agreed upon were the following:
0 # (be root)
1 # cd /usr/src
2 # make buildworld
3 # make buildkernel KERNCONF=<the-file-with-your-kernel-config>
4 # make installkernel KERNCONF=<the-file-with-your-kernel-config>
5 # shutdown -r now
6 # make installworld
7 # mergemaster -i
these are what i am following now.
i see you are recommending i use the "traditional way." do you think it
will aleviate my problems?
