Thank you! Yes, I _did_ know k7 was actually i(x)86, but figured config(8)
would "throw me a bone" if it were wrong.
Anyway, I'll take your advice.
There are some architecture specific settings there, so it is best to
actually do this and fail it early (well if you would do buildkernel
it would be earlier :) than getting some strange errors.
If you were thinking to just copy it to i386 directory, to save you
future issues, I would recommend you to redo the config based on
GENERIC in i386 directory.
Understood. That's what I did (i386/GENERIC --> CUSTOM).
I _knew_ there would be issue(s) otherwise.
Thank you again for the advice. Looks to be working as expected. :)
Rather than copy and modify, a custom config can include the GENERIC
config and override settings. That generally makes the custom config
file smaller and easier to maintain:
