This must exist in the 5.x man pages, I'm working with 4.x systems :
release.3 Builds and installs ``crypto'', ``krb4'' and ``krb5''
distri-butions.
release.4 Makes and installs the GENERIC kernel.
There is no reference to the KERNELS variable in the 4.x version of the
man page although it does exist in the Makefile. So this explains why you
think I hadn't RTFM ;-)
Thanks for your help, between you and John I think I've got this mostly
figured out.
Regards,
Chris
