Building a sandboxed kernel

[R. Tyler Ballance]

I'm working on a project that relies on me building kernels outside of the standard /usr/src (typically ~/perforce/projects/ ) on my relatively standard 6.1-STABLE workstation. I'm wondering if I'd be best suited by setting up a jail for kernel builds, I'm following this doc: http://people.freebsd.org/~cognet/freebsd_arm.txt loosely because I've created a new "arch folder" in src/sys for the kernel code that I want to build (right now it's unmodified i386 code)

make TARGET_ARCH=iguana DESTDIR=/home/tyler/iguana buildkernel


Any suggestions?



Cheers,

Between varying versions of userland tools (like config(8)) and path troubles, I'm wondering what tips anybody has to doing non-standard builds of the kernel (non-standard being not in /usr/src and not the host arch) Currently the make command I'm using, which doesn't work, is (/usr/ obj is chmod'd 777):
