From 1e15924872b9f77c60de9ed4690a2a9f2a2a565e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Warner Losh Date: Mon, 22 Jan 2001 08:03:13 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Note change of KERNEL to KERNCONF for building instructions. Peter changed this due to the undesirable side effects that putting KERNEL in /etc/make.conf was having on people's lives. Also update the instructions as well. --- UPDATING | 19 +++++++++++++++---- 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/UPDATING b/UPDATING index 8828b99dfb9f..6a965c6532d7 100644 --- a/UPDATING +++ b/UPDATING @@ -5,6 +5,17 @@ directly to him.
