Most of the time, you only need to see the last 4 or 5. I think that I only look at one of my builds to see the "chmod 444 freebsd.cf" and fire up the next script. BTW, If you add both of your kernels to /etc/make.conf, you would only need one buildkernel. The first one is the one that is installed. I have it commented now but I used to use #KERNCONF=RUBY GENERIC to build both and install just RUBY. I got so that I liked the logs separated and changed how I did things. RUBY is my fastest machine was designed to build kernels for other systems and then nfs_mount src and obj on the other machines and install them this way. When I strickly started shutting down to single user mode, it wasn't a normal option. Kent -- Kent Stewart Richland, WA http://users.owt.com/kstewart/index.html
