You won't pick up improvements, like the scheduler change from 4BSD - ULE I don't think the handbook is wrong, but you mentioned a different, but still completely valid solution: What I do is include the GENERIC file and override things with nooption/nodevice directives. Never tried this, but surely will. The last time I compiled a kernel, I made a copy of GENERIC, edited the copy to only include what is really present on the system, and used KERNCONF with this file. So I composed a new file on the example of GENERIC. Of course I know that it's not possible to use a kernel config from 4.10 to build a kernel on 7.2, so caution is intended. :-) The benefit of my solution is that you are not depending on another file, or have to read it through in order to form the intended nodevice and nooption statements. Anyway, you have to review the file with each system update, to find out if something important changed (e. g. the default scheduler, as you mentioned). -- Polytropon From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Nowhere did I see a reference to read the man page for the sound driver, nor an example of how to install it in the kernel. I did, eventually, find an example of how to install via the kernel by Googling for it. I believe that the Handbook should be somewhat more specific though in this area.

'man snd_hda' would have told you this.
