is it safe to reboot the system with the sysctl -w kern.securelevel variable set to -1 ..AFTER the OS has just done a make buildworld ? and then just pickup where i left off ??
The buildworld should work fine in raised securelevels. Installing (kernels or the rest of the "world") won't, but that's one of the
To confirm, at securelevel -1, you will be able to remove immutable files and so forth, in order to install a new kernel. At level -2 and -3 you can no longer modify immutable files and/or change the firewall rulesets. The latter is not so much of a problem, but the former will effectively prevent you from installing a new kernel.
