Hi there,
I hope anybody can help me.
I followed the Handbook to make a new kernel. The main interest for
doing so is: I need to mount Netware volumes, etc. and I want to use my
onboard SoundMax sound device. By going through I disabled a lot of
stuff I do not need (SCSI, RAID, some USB devices etc) and added some
nice stuff I may want to use in the near future (IPSec).
The config command and make depend went well, but make produces an error
and because I am a newbie I did not find the error until now.
Perhaps somebody can help me to get the new kernel?
BTW: i tried the make buildkernel command (second way to build a
kernel), but it refuses to work with:
localhost# make buildkernel KERNCONF=mykernel
make: don't know how to make buildkernel. Stop
Thanks for your help, cheers
Stefan
My kernel configuration file follows:
#
# mykernel -- kernel configuration file for FreeBSD/i386 with IPX support
#
# For more information on this file, please read the handbook section on
# Kernel Configuration Files:
#
#
http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig-config.html
#
# The handbook is also available locally in /usr/share/doc/handbook
# if you've installed the doc distribution, otherwise always see the
# FreeBSD World Wide Web server (http://www.FreeBSD.org/) for the
# latest information.
#
# An exhaustive list of options and more detailed explanations of the
# device lines is also present in the ./LINT configuration file. If you are
# in doubt as to the purpose or necessity of a line, check first in LINT.
