Indeed. I keep mine in /usr/local/kernel (I sometimes have to copy them over, such as when doing a kernel build over NFS on another box, but life isn't perfect), and I newfs /usr/src and re-co the src tree between builds (nice quick and easy way to cleanup, that). -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ "The only reason I'm burning my candle at both ends, is because I haven't figured out how to light the middle yet" To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
