When it stops. Fix the error, and re-compile under the same name. It will still show the same error. >Fix: So if you correct the error (spelling etc) or change anything else with the same kernel name, you end up with your old compile files and not the new ones. Go into ../../compile/MY.KERNERL rm * and then cd .. and rmdir MY.KERNEL. Then run the new config. Otherwise you will be up all night like I was looking for an error. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
