D'OH! :P Sorry. That _should_ have read: make installkernel KERNCONF=<mykern_name_here> ____________^^^^^^ Good catch! I can assure you, I _did_ do it correctly, when actually performing the install. :) FWIW Mine was a fresh install from the 9.0 CD1, then a sync src, ports && make build(world||kernel); install(kernel||world).
