Hi,
I tried to compile a reference GENERIC kernel from 7-CURRENT
as explainde in an article.
I downloaded the CVS repository and then co a local copy
of 7-CURRENT in a user directory (as explained etc.)
When I try
$ config GENERIC
I get the message
ERROR: version of config(8) does not match

How useful is a 7-CURRENT kernel with
6-SOMETHING userland?
Not much useful but the intention was just to compile a reference
kernel; not to upgrade the current installed system.
(everything is in a user subdirectory)
It was explained in a tutorial article about kern

Have a look in the handbook here:

and here:

for instructions on how to rebuild/upgrade your kernel and system.
