	I am upgrading my laptop from 3.4 STABEL to 4.0 STABLE.

	Installed .0 ELEASSE from the CD, cvsuped REL_ENG4. did a "make world"
	and the system panics on boot :-(

	I geuss I tried to shortcut something here. Normally I do the
	following:

	1. Install (CD or ftp).
	2. Build custom kernel (mostly striping out unused stuff).
	3. cvsup.
	4. make world
	5. make kernel again
	6. reboot.

	Is this the procedure I should have followed here?

	Also, I am confused about making a kenrel in 4.x in 3.x I was able to:

	1. cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
	2. create config file.
	3. config COFIG_FILE
	4. cd ../../CONFIG_FILE/compile
	5. make depend
	6. make install

	This does not seem to be the documented procedure for 4.x, but it
	appears as though the documented procedure does this, but has more "by
	hand" steps in it.

	What is the correct procedure for making a kernel in 4.x?

	Thanks.
