I don't get it. I'm trying to switch from a custom kernel named SERVER to a generic kernel.
%uname -imrs FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE-p4 amd64 SERVER cd /usr/src make clean rm -rf /usr/obj make buildkernel make installkernel <reboot> %sysctl kern.ident kern.ident: SERVER Why isn't the GENERIC kernel taking effect? The make installkernel does say generic. -------------------------------------------------------------- >>> Installing kernel -------------------------------------------------------------- cd /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC; MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX=/usr/obj MACHINE_ARCH=amd64 MACHINE=amd64 CPUTYPE= GROFF_BIN_PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/bin GROFF_FONT_PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/share/groff_font GROFF_TMAC_PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/share/tmac PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/sbin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/bi n:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/games:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/sbin:/usr/o bj/usr/src/tmp/usr/bin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/games:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/ usr/bin make KERNEL=kernel install thiskernel=`sysctl -n kern.bootfile` ; if [ !
