Hi. I'm building a new kernel that has some new options enabled. I've
already built a whole bunch. I'm doing it from memory now. (('ve got
NetBSD). The problem is that all of my files are coming out with the same
configuration name like:
386BSD-0.1 (SNRE) blah blah blah.
The thing is that my kernel config file in /sys/i386/conf is called SNRE2SWAP,
and the ident flag in the file is SNRE2SWAP.
The procedure I'm using is
edit the new configuration file, (say SNRE2SWAP for example).
"config SNRE2SWAP"
cd to /sys/compile/SNRE2SWAP
"make newvers"
"make depend"
"make"
boot the new kernel.
Am I doing something wrong? What's the deal?
Thanx....alex...
