I downloaded the binaries on sun-lamp for i386. They are dated August
1st. I grabbed the sys.tar.gz so I could compile my kernel, but it is
dated August 31st.
Apparently, there was enough difference, that the compiled kernel and the
rest of the system would cause a vm_fault on booting, just not allowing to
do anything except watch it repeatedly reboot.
You need to also rebuild config before you build a new kernel. You
need to get the config.tar.gz file, or just the usr.sbin.tar.gz files
will do too. Before you rebuild config, you need to get the
include.tar.gz files and do a ``make install'' in /usr/src/include.
After you've installed the new includes, and rebuilt and installed
config, then you can build a new kernel. Make sure you do a ``make
clean'' and ``make depend'' in the kernel compile dir before the
``make''.
Beware, however, if your sources are *really* out of sync in your
kernel compile dir (assuming you're building a kernel in the same dir
you built a previous kernel), you may need to clean *all* the files
out of the compile dir first to make sure you don't grab anything old.
