The -p10 includes no kernel updates so restarting is not neccesarry. bye Norman Am Dienstag, den 15.01.2008, 08:52 +0100 schrieb zbigniew szalbot: > Hello again, > > Norman Maurer pisze: > > It should be enough to just building and installing the kernel.

Re: newest security patch and custom kernel
Hello again, Norman Maurer pisze: It should be enough to just building and installing the kernel. The freebsd-update should have patched the kernel src files anyway. Thank you for very helpful advice. One last question, is it necessary to restart the machine? Or can I keep it online after building and installing the kernel? I don't care about uname -a details not being updated unless the machine needs restarting to include the updates. Thank you!

Re: newest security patch and custom kernel
It should be enough to just building and installing the kernel. The freebsd-update should have patched the kernel src files anyway. bye Norman Am Dienstag, den 15.01.2008, 07:24 +0100 schrieb zbigniew szalbot: > Hello, > > > Norman Maurer pisze: > > Hi, > > > > the /usr/src/sys* stuff should be patched anyway.

Re: newest security patch and custom kernel
Hello, Norman Maurer pisze: Hi, the /usr/src/sys* stuff should be patched anyway. But you need to build your kernel again and install it to reflect the changes. Even if i think it only update the -p10 label in the case of -p10 patch set. OK. So this page applies to me now? http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig-building.html 1. Change to the /usr/src directory: # cd /usr/src 2. Compile the kernel: # make buildkernel KERNCONF=/MYKERNEL/ 3. Install the new kernel: # make installkernel KERNCONF=/MYKERNEL/ *Note:* It is required to have full FreeBSD source tree to build the kernel. I am interested if I need to download latest FBSD sources then? I have not touched them since I built a custom kernel. Thank you!

Re: newest security patch and custom kernel
Hi, the /usr/src/sys* stuff should be patched anyway. But you need to build your kernel again and install it to reflect the changes. Even if i think it only update the -p10 label in the case of -p10 patch set. cheers Norman Am Dienstag, den 15.01.2008, 07:03 +0100 schrieb zbigniew szalbot: > Hello, > > Using freebsd-update I applied the latest security patches which were > announced yesterday.

newest security patch and custom kernel
Hello, Using freebsd-update I applied the latest security patches which were announced yesterday. However, I then notice this message: The following files will be updated as part of updating to 6.2-RELEASE-p10: /boot/GENERIC/kernel My question is whether my update missed the point because I have a custom kernel? If so, do I need to apply it manually as described in the security advisory? If I still want to go down the binary road, how can I make sure my custom kernel gets patched, too? Thank you very much!
