Allen) Newsgroups: comp.os.386bsd.questions Subject: Kernel Hacking, (always make clean?) Date: 3 Mar 1994 19:40:48 GMT Organization: String to put in the Organization Header Lines: 27 Message-ID: <2l5eg0$rjc@psu_075.chem.pdx.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: caeser.geog.pdx.edu X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] OK, so I recompiled the the kernel, to change IRQ probe for a ethernet card, now if I want to make another change, should'nt I be able to do this; cd /sys/compile/GENERICAH make Compiled a few things and went to link stage in minutes. I did that and got a wierd kernel that spawned TWO versions of init. and was otherwise useless. So I did this instead; cd /sys/i386/conf config GENERICAH <--the config file I am using cd /sys/compile/GENERICAH make depend make And it works.. but is SO SLLLOOOWWWWW because now it is recompiling everything. Am I missing something? -- ======================================================================= * Jay D.
