I suspect that that must use the new-but-not-installed : config or something. A normal "config GURNEY" in sys/i386/conf : didn't work, but "make buildkernel KERNEL=GURNEY" worked for me. Right. The config / make method can be made to work, but it is too hard to document for novice users. : * Having a kernel called /GURNEY now, rather than /kernel : requires that the file loader.conf.local contains kernel="/GURNEY", : otherwise the boot loader will load up the old 3.4-STABLE kernel. Or stop the boot, unload the /kernel and boot /GURNET. Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
