Tim Vanderhoek 1cdf1085c1 Catchup with the times:
- Avoid use of word that Americans don't know how to spell
 - Avoid use of capital letters when referring to command names
 - Bookmarks do span files
 - Use .Qq where appropriate.  I didn't use .Sq or .Dq where `' and ``''
   appear, since it's not clear to me what modern usage of those two
   macros is.
 - Say simply: ``See .Xr xxx 1'' rather than ``See the .Xr xxx 1 command''.
   This former style has undoubtedly increased in popularity due to
   html and hyperlinks, but it's always been around (esp. for manpage
   sections other than section 1).
 - Use .St
 - Dedocument use of `-' to mean that `more` should read from its
   standard input.  The modern preferred way to read from standard
   input is by specifying /dev/stdin.  This is not a prelude to changing
   more's behaviour within the short term (ie. at least 3-4 years).

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel and the contents of /etc.  Please see the top of the Makefile
in this directory for more information on the standard build targets
and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel with config(8) is a somewhat more involved process,
documentation for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file LINT contains entries for all possible devices, not
just those commonly used, and is meant more as a general reference
than an actual kernel configuration file (a kernel built from it
wouldn't even run).
