20 Feb 06 If you ever upgrade / change your FreeBSD kernel

This is the right way to do it. I have tried it now on 4 different boxes, 5 different versions (ranging from 4.9 to 6.1-prerelease).

After you cvsup the kernel…

cd /usr/src
make buildworld
make buildkernel KERNCONF=(namehere)
make installkernel KERNCONF=(namehere)
mergemaster -p
make installworld
mergemaster
reboot

You can leave out KERNCONF if you just want to use the generic kernel (which is a good idea if your upgrading to a major version number say 5.4 to 6.0.
