Use 'make -DNO_CLEAN buildkernel' instead of 'make buildkernel'. This way the build will not remove all the old object files first, but will just recompile those files that need to be recompiled. (Works for buildworld as well.) Beware that there are a few, fairly rare, situations where it is actually needed to clean the tree first before building. If you run into problems it is a good idea to skip the '-DNO_CLEAN' flag. -- <Insert your favourite quote here.> Erik Trulsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
