.Sh EXAMPLES
|
||||
The
|
||||
.Dq approved
|
||||
method of updating your system from the latest sources is:
|
||||
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
||||
make buildworld
|
||||
make buildkernel KERNEL=FOO
|
||||
make installkernel KERNEL=FOO
|
||||
make installworld
|
||||
.Ed
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
.Dq FOO
|
||||
must be replaced with the name of the kernel configuration file from which
|
||||
the kernel should be built.
|
||||
Alternatively, the
|
||||
.Va KERNEL
|
||||
variable in
|
||||
.Pa /etc/make.conf
|
||||
can be set to the name of the kernel to build;
|
||||
in this case the
|
||||
.Dq KERNEL=FOO
|
||||
part of the
|
||||
.Dq buildkernel
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Dq installkernel
|
||||
commands can be omitted.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
After running these commands a system reboot is required,
|
||||
otherwise many programs which have been rebuilt
|
||||
(such as
|
||||
.Nm ps ,
|
||||
.Nm top ,
|
||||
etc)
|
||||
will not work with the old kernel which is still running.
