Does make world build a kernel? I didn't think so, and OP's message indicates that make world is all he did. I suspect re-install is the best answer now.

I've been unable to understand its continued existence as a target. -- Barney Wolff http://www.databus.com/bwresume.pdf I'm available by contract or FT, in the NYC metro area or via the 'Net. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
