"make buildworld" -- builds the kernel and the libraries (both kernel and
user level)
"make buildkernel" -- builds only the kernel
You can build kernels with different configuration files using "make
buildkernel KERNCONF=". Once you do the 'build', the kernel image
is stored as /kernel

Title: Re: Question on order and targets of kernel and

I would appreciate a bit more information
on the 'world' and 'kernel'
building process. Please point me at the right section of the Handbook
or
Greg's book if there is a succinct description.

Thanks Jim, Garance, and Pavan -
I think I have the information and references now. I also think I had
didn't have trouble before because I was basically moving only by very
small steps in my rebuilds: bugfixes rather than any changes of APIs.
_Much_ better to do this a bit more knowledgably.

If anybody has definitive information (like, proof) to the contrary I'd be
interested in knowing.
