With respect, that is not correct, at least for stable/7 as of r200721. Rather, the line in question is in /sys/i386/conf/DEFAULTS: g1-119(7.2-S)[2] cd /sys/i386/conf/ g1-119(7.2-S)[3] grep '^machine' * DEFAULTS:machine i386 g1-119(7.2-S)[4] Indeed; that appears to have gone into DEFAULTS as of r152865: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r152865 | ru | 2005-11-27 15:17:00 -0800 (Sun, 27 Nov 2005) | 3 lines - Allow duplicate "machine" directives with the same arguments. - Move existing "machine" directives to DEFAULTS. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I note, too, that stable/6, stable/8 and head each built and ran successfully on this machine this morning -- each using an unmodified GENERIC kernel, as is the kernel I was unable to build for stable/7. And I had another occurrence of the "make buildkernel" failure on my laptop (as a reality check) -- though that was not a GENERIC kerenl. > ... Peace, david -- David H.
