| | 11 | The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for |
| | 12 | building components (or all) of the DragonFly source tree, the most |
| | 13 | commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs |
| | 14 | everything in the DragonFly system from the source tree except the |
| | 15 | kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The |
| | 16 | ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install |
| | 17 | the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of |
| | 18 | the Makefile in this directory for more information on the |
| | 19 | standard build targets and compile-time flags. |
| | 20 | |
| | 21 | Building a kernel is a somewhat involved process. Documentation |
| | 22 | for it can be found at: |
| | 23 | http://www.FreeBSD.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html |
| | 24 | Although the above reference is FreeBSD-specific, it is also generally |
| | 25 | applicable to DragonFly. Also see the the config(8) man page. |
| | 26 | |
| | 27 | Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the |
| | 28 | ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build |
| | 29 | world before. More information is available in the FreeBSD handbook. |
| | 30 | |
| | 31 | The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf |
| | 32 | sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the |
| | 33 | file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation |
| | 34 | kernel. The file LINT contains entries for all possible devices, not |
| | 35 | just those commonly used, and is meant more as a general reference |
| | 36 | than an actual kernel configuration file (a kernel built from it |
| | 37 | wouldn't even run). |
