Another solution would be, once 4.1 gets out to unpack the base41.tgz, etc41.tgz and comp41.tgz into /usr/somewhere then unpack or checkout using cvs the 4.1 kernel sources in there as well. Once you are in this situation you can chroot to this new fake 4.1 system: chroot /usr/somewhere /bin/sh

Thanks for the ideas! And if I understand correctly the most easy and safe way to build custom kernel for a new release is to temporary setup this release on any computer (maybe even under virtual machine) and build the kernel there. And then use generated kernel instead of bundled one for the

Hello. Will it be possible to build GENERIC kernel for the next OpenBSD release 4.1 using release or stable 4.0 system (with comp40.tgz set installed)? I need this to know to decide put /usr on raid or not. Because if /usr will be on raid I'll need to rebuild new kernel before replace current
