    Rebuilding the kernel

    To rebuild the default kernel from stable: !

    Replace i386 with your architecture, e.g. sparc, alpha, etc. !

    Rebooting with the new kernel

    To reboot with the newly compiled kernel: !

    As above, substitute your architecture for i386. If your system has trouble booting the new kernel, you can easily go back and reboot from the old kernel, now called bsd.old. !

    Rebuilding the binaries

    Rebuilding the kernel

    To rebuild the default kernel from stable: ! 

      # cd /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/conf
  # /usr/sbin/config GENERIC
  # cd /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC
  # make clean && make depend && make
!

    Replace i386 with your architecture, e.g. sparc, alpha, etc. !

    Rebooting with the new kernel

    To reboot with the newly compiled kernel: ! 

      # cd /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC
  # cp /bsd /bsd.old          (Save an old copy of your kernel)
  # cp bsd /bsd               (Copy the new kernel into place)
  # reboot
!

    As above, substitute your architecture for i386. If your system has trouble booting the new kernel, you can easily go back and reboot from the old kernel, now called bsd.old. !

    Rebuilding the binaries

    To rebuild the system binaries: ! 

      # rm -rf /usr/obj/*
  # cd /usr/src
  # make obj
  # cd /usr/src/etc && env DESTDIR=/ make distrib-dirs
  # cd /usr/src
  # make build
!

    This will take awhile...
