Hello all! I want compile only the kernel for my DrgonFlyBSD. I do this comands:
make nativekernel KERNCONF=MyKERN
but this doesn't never and return me some error:

[12:26am]root@dragon:/usr/src#make nativekernel KERNCONF=DRAGON

ERROR: Missing kernel configuration file(s) (DRAGON).
Did you move your kernel configs from i386/conf to config/?

  • Error code 1

Yea, do what it tells you. :) Put your kernel config in /usr/src/sys/config.

The location of config files can also be set by the env variable
KERNCONFDIR (for those who use the same config for more than one source
tree).

I was not aware of this. So this:

Yea, or make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL KERNCONFDIR=/root

I set variables KERNCONFIG=/root/kernels (in this directory locate my KERNEL)

kernel. What meen this message -> "Specify platform architecture, e.g.
'platform pc32'"?
Why in DragonFlyBSD's handbook not exist information about this procedure
(compile only the kernel)?
Forgive me for my poor English... :(

Ah.  Your config file is missing a couple of required directives.
Look at /usr/src/sys/config/GENERIC for an example. You need a
'platform', 'machine', and 'machine_arch' directive. And yes,
your config file goes in /usr/src/sys/config/

Please make sure that you have:

platform pc32
machine i386
machine_arch i386

in your config.

No one updated it yet.

machine_arch is also needed, don't know whether the order is important.

Can you give us the output from the following command on the system
currently installed on your machine?

uname -mrs

Also, which version of DragonFly source tree did you fetch(or checked out)?

Cheers.

What tag I should specify in a cvsup-file to load source codes necessary for me?

Updated by qhwt+dfly over 17 years ago

That depends on which version of DragonFly source tree you want, but
example supfiles reside under /usr/share/examples/cvsup directory
(DragonFly-release1_8-supfile, for example).

Hope this helps.

I have finished compilation of a kernel for my system! I very much would want,
that in a management on system have added the information about such procedure,
as compilation of a kernel. Data which now are in a management, we shall tell
so, mismatch the validity.

Thank you very much. I am sorry, my English is poor but I want tell for you
that DragonFlyBSD's handbook doesn't have a section about "make nativekernel"
and in handbook isn't exists information about how prepare to compilation the
nativekernel.

please try to avoid using the main server and use a mirror instead. for
example you could use chlamydia.fs.ei.tum.de. this should give you a higher
speed as well.
