The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
|
|
|
|
|
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
|
|
|
|
|
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
|
|
|
|
|
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
|
2000-07-31 09:22:50 +00:00
|
|
|
kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The
|
|
|
|
|
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
|
2000-07-31 12:39:09 +00:00
|
|
|
the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of
|
|
|
|
|
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
|
|
|
|
|
standard build targets and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
|
|
|
|
|
for which can be found at:
|
1997-01-01 14:06:29 +00:00
|
|
|
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html
|
1997-01-06 08:04:25 +00:00
|
|
|
And in the config(8) man page.
|
2000-07-31 12:39:09 +00:00
|
|
|
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
|
|
|
|
|
``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you have to build
|
|
|
|
|
world before. More information is available in the handbook.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf
|
|
|
|
|
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
|
|
|
|
|
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
|
2000-07-31 09:22:50 +00:00
|
|
|
kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible
|
|
|
|
|
devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient
|
|
|
|
|
LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a
|
|
|
|
|
pure reference and documentation file.
