2010-09-23 Thread Dennis Melentyev
Hi all, I'm trying to update "v2.7.3.689.g853fe-DEVELOPMENT" to latest. Built successfully, installkernel complaints "install new /boot first" (or something close to this). I know, there was a major rewrite in boot/dloader, but neither UPDATING nor Makefile gives me a clue on what I have to do.
