Re: kernel.old not used any longer?

I'm trying that now. However on 5.x 'make kernel' installs a kernel.old. On
6.x:

basement# make -n kernel
cd /usr/src;  PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin `if [ -x
/usr/obj/usr/src/make.i386/make ]; then echo
/usr/obj/usr/src/make.i386/make; else echo make; fi`  -m
/usr/src/share/mk -f Makefile.inc1 buildkernel
cd /usr/src;  PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin `if [ -x
/usr/obj/usr/src/make.i386/make ]; then echo
/usr/obj/usr/src/make.i386/make; else echo make; fi`  -m
/usr/src/share/mk -f Makefile.inc1 installkernel

'make kernel' executed both 'make buildkernel' and 'make installkernel' so
I'm guessing it won't but I'll know for sure in a few minutes.
