kernel build did not go 'by the book'

Procedure 1. Building a kernel the ``traditional'' way


1.  Run config(8) to generate the kernel source code.

# /usr/sbin/config MYKERNEL

that's how the handbook shows how to do it and this is how I did it

#/usr/sbin/config GWYNETH | that's what I named my custom kernel

but I got this

#config../../compile/GWYNETH:No such file or directory

that's what I got the first time, so, I tried again and got this

##config /GWYNETH:No such file or directory

what went wrong and is more info needed

Don't do this then..use the method involving buildkernel, which is
more foolproof.

Actually, you didn't read the Handbook properly. You need to have the
kernel config file in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf, and you need to do the
config MYKERNEL in that directory as well.
