This is a new one for me. I decided to do a manual update on my 8.1
box, starting with csup. Buildworld went fine, as did buildkernel.
However, when I tried to install the new kernel installkernel choked
with an error message telling me that it could not proceed because the

Please upgrade your linux_base port to linux_base-f10 (it's a default
for 8.0 BTW). A small howto you may read at /usr/ports/UPDATING.
I may be making things worse. I wasn't sure how the osrelease should
read for sysctl.conf (couldn't find that in UPDATING), so I upgraded to
linux_base-fc6

Ah, Boris...your patience is commendable, especially to this newbie.
But before I follow the instructions of your last post I assume that
installing f10 is implied, and should precede the installation of any
linux apps. Correct?
OK...it finally dawned on me that f10 would get taken care of

No. What you really want to do is set smart_host to the outgoing
mail server provided by your ISP.
Please forgive my ignorance here, but how does one accomplish that?

Hi Everyone,
As a rank newbie I have been trying to install a custom kernel, and
have attempted to follow the directions in the handbook. But I just
can't get the thing to make. The handbook also says that it is okay
to send the configuration file to this list for analysis.
