of the FreeBSD release builds. This adds a make(1) environment variable requirement, WITH_VMIMAGES, which triggers the virtual machine image targets when not defined to an empty value. Relevant user-driven variables include: o VMFORMATS: The virtual machine image formats to create. Valid formats are provided by running 'mkimg --formats' o VMSIZE: The size of the resulting virtual machine image. Typical compression is roughly 140Mb, regardless of the target size (10GB, 15GB, 20GB, 40GB sizes have been tested with the same result). o VMBASE: The prefix of the virtual machine disk images. The VMBASE make(1) environment variable is suffixed with each format in VMFORMATS for each individual disk image, as well as '.img' for the source UFS filesystem passed to mkimg(1). This also includes a new script, mk-vmimage.sh, based on how the VM images for 10.0-RELEASE, 9.3-RELEASE, and 10.1-RELEASE were created (mk-vmimage.sh in ^/user/gjb/thermite/). With the order in which the stages need to occur, as well as sanity-checking error cases, it makes much more sense to execute a shell script called from make(1), using env(1) to set specific parameters for the target image than it does to do this in make(1) directly.

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, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). 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 is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/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 NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
