Odhiambo Washington, Thank you for your thoughtful reply. According to the documentation located at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig-building.html ... For example: # cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf # mkdir /root/kernels # cp GENERIC /root/kernels/MYKERNEL # ln -s /root/kernels/MYKERNEL ... So, in case it is not yet apparent, DEMON01 is located in /root/krenels and the link is located in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf (yes I re-created it after re-installing src). Are we on the same page yet. ;) -Chris > Read the documentation again! > > You did rm -rf /usr/src. > So where the fuck is DEMON01 ;) > Anyway, b4 compiling a kernel, you must buildworld 1st. > > > cd /usr/src > make buildworld > make kernel KERNCONF=DEMON01 BTW, I think that unless something new has happened since I read the docs a couple of hrs. ago, the sequence you provide here is missing a couple of steps - make install, mergemaster, etc... > make installwolrd (only after you have booted the new kernel) > > > > > * /dev/null <null_at_dnswatch.com> [20050427 08:28]: wrote: >> Hello, >> Just got a new CPU today.
