Bug ID: 225159
Summary: `make installkernel’ should display a “completed”
message if done
Product: Base System
Version: CURRENT
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: kern
Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
Reporter: wo...@freebsd.org
If you build a kernel you will see in the log output some status messages as
$ make buildkernel
>>> Kernel build for GENERIC started on Sun Jan 14 05:03:57 PST 2018
>>> stage 1: configuring the kernel
[...]
>>> Kernel build for GENERIC completed on Sun Jan 14 05:54:22 PST 2018
If you see the message “Kernel build for GENERIC completed” then you know the
kernel was successfully build.
if you install the kernel
$ make installkernel
>>> Installing kernel GENERIC
[....]
kldxref /boot/kernel
There is no “Installing kernel GENERIC completed” message. It is not obvious
if the kernel installation was successfully.
BTW, we should also display the time when the kernel was installed, as we do
for the build.
