Hi,

thanks a lot for quick reply.

> Did you copy the 6.0 GENERIC config file into the one your buildkernel
make uses?

No, actually I didn't. From what I could see on
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html,
I didn't think it was necessary.

>> The error when trying to boot the new kernel makes the system reboots
after 15 seconds, so I haven't had the opportunity to write that one
down. However, the error message from when trying: "unload", "boot
/boot/kernel.old/kernel" I was able to copy down in full (see
>> bottom).

If I understand you correctly, that would mean that even if I haven't yet
done "installworld", my userland is still 6.0? I'm terribly sorry if I
wasn't clear on that point.
Thanks for the boot command - it worked very well.

I thought I'd try to cvsup the sourcetree to RELENG_6_0 instead now, and
then try to recompile. Is that a good idea? I was thinking, since
installworld hasn't been done yet?


Many thanks,

Torgeir Hoffmann
