Kernel

This is my first time building a kernel so please bare with me.

After building it the way I wanted it I enter the command
#make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL
and I got this message.

Code: 
">>> stage 1: configuring the kernel
--------------------------------------------------------------
cd /usr/src/sys/amd64/conf;  PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/sbin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/bin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy

config: /usr/src/sys/amd64/conf/MYKERNEL:21: syntax error
*** Error code 1

*** Error code 1

Can anyone help me figure this out?
 
It's a little bit difficult without seeing MYKERNEL.
Can you post a diff between MYKERNEL and GENERIC?
 
I didn't really change too much. And I'm not 100% what your asking for. But here I go.

You use the line:

Code: 
machine amd64

But I cannot find that line in my own GENERIC or LINT file.
Looks like an unknown option. Where did you get that from?

After an update, you can rebuild with the same kernel config file.

Well, the idea was that if I commented out a lot of the services and unnecessary items I would have a faster machine. Cut me a little slack, this is only day 4 with FreeBSD.

I followed this to help assist me in creating my kernel. When it first starts talking about the contents of the kernel is shows "machine i386", since I didn't see anything under my kernel I decided to put that in there.

Try commenting out SCTP (afaik it still needs INET6).

Thanks, will do!



Thanks for all the help guys!
 
'machine' is deprecated, though it hasn't made it to the Handbook yet(*). You will not find 'machine' in your GENERIC kernel, so there's no need to re-invent it for your own.

(*) probably because the Handbook tries to cover as much of the FreeBSD versions which are not end-of-life yet.
 
Is
Code:

valid?

Doing that got me a lot further this time. It starts compiling most of the way through then I get a similar error

Code: 
/usr/src/sys/dev/msk/if_msk.c:152:23: error: miibus_if.h: No such file or directory
mkdep: compile failed
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MYKERNEL.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src.
*** Error code 1

Any Ideas? There is a folder and directory named miibus_if.h in the msk directory.

Unused kernel drivers don't generally* slow anything down. Unless you are very low on memory or root space there's no need to madly trim. Go slow, removing one or two things at a time (or one class of things, like say SCSI RAID drivers . . .) until something breaks.


* the exception being WITNESS and some other debugging stuff. SCSI_DELAY can slow probing during boot, but you shouldn't get too upset about that, unless you're rebooting every couple of minutes. And crappy, old 5.25", full height SCSI-2 drives (the one I had sounded like a JT8 mounted on a washing machine full of angry badgers when it spun up, R.I.P.) like to have their spin-up & probe time. Sometimes I would warm bagels on it, since it ran at around 60-80C all of the time. Just leave a slot above it open.

Speaking of debugging... are ALL the debugging options in the kernel file necessary? I've been searching around and couldn't find a straight answer.
