The steps are: - use gpart to make partitions in the dev of the USB stick - svn checkout the source of FreeBSD of the version you want - make buildworld - make buildkernel - mount the USB partition to /mnt - make installworld DESTDIR=/mnt - make installkernel DESTDIR=/mnt - make distribdir DESTDIR=/mnt - make distribution DESTDIR=/mnt - umount /mnt reboot and boot from USB. I've done this a lot of times to test new kernels or test special laptops. Come back to me if you need more details or in case of problems. matthias -- Matthias Apitz, ✉ guru@unixarea.de, http://www.unixarea.de/ +49-176-38902045 Public GnuPG key: http://www.unixarea.de/key.pub N € I N zur EU!
