That is: If you are compiling the kernel using the 'make buildkernel from /usr/src, you should have done a 'make buildworld' first. If you are compiling a standalone kernel (running config(8) by hand), you should have done either a 'make world' or a 'make installworld' after a 'buildworld' on these very sources (not the ones before updating). If you are using 'make world'.. it has probably taken care of config(8), but the buildworld/buildkernel combination is much preferred for 4.1 and onwards. If all of this is too unclear for you, that's probably because your question was a bit too unclear for us. At the very least you might have included the exact error message; the steps you have taken to build the kernel would also help; the FreeBSD version that you are trying to update from would not hurt, either; the exact kernel config would be an added bonus ;) G'luck, Peter -- .siht ekil ti gnidaer eb d'uoy ,werbeH ni erew ecnetnes siht fI To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
