    Solved How to package compiled kernel

    I compile and install my own kernel (mostly because my hardware isn't supported yet, so I add my product IDs). How can I package that compiled kernel neatly into a nice package so I can unpack it and install it on another machine? I need this because the other machine also needs custom hardware...

    why so few pkg mirrors?

    I found some answers in the handbook. Same as other folks, I started mirroring packages locally.

    Installing packages without internet

    Yes, I'm writing my own tool. What I'd like to do is to use everything the ports infrastructure already provides and nothing more (at least this is my intention).What is confusing me is the directory used by the packages and all the possible forms. Here's a quick example: cd...

    Solved unavailable package due licensing issue (epsonscan2-non-free-plugin)

    Doing anything with ports: First take sure that it is up to date. As long that's not the case there's nothing to do inside the ports tree. Won't work. To uninstall via make the port name isn't needed - it uses the port of the actual directory. make deinstall is what you're trying to do here...

    ...nvidia-kmod-580.119.02.1600007.pkg /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-kmod# On the other hand, tools like ports-mgmt/portupgrade stores resulting pkg into /usr/ports/packages/All/ as you described, if specified to create package (for portupgrade, option -p but could be different on different tools).

    ZFS Hopelessly lost with ZFS

    I guess it probably has a place given the huge size of modern storage. I used to use LVM on a single disk AIX desktop box to manage volumes. It all depends what you're using the system for.

    ZFS Hopelessly lost with ZFS

    The best explanation of ZFS I heard was by Bryan Cantrill when he presented Solaris 10 at a dog & pony at one of the hotels here about 20 years ago. ZFS is a volume manager and a filesystem wrapped up in one. Think of it as a Linux LVM on steroids and a filesystem on steroids all in the same...

    Call for testing: pkgbase support in 15.0

    No problem. I was also investigating pkg-create a package from /boot/kernel.custom. For doing so, a MANIFEST file is necessary, but I couldn't find a shell script in the source code which does it automatically (e.g. <shell_script> /boot/kernel.custom > MANIFEST). For example, a pkgbase kernel...

    Call for testing: pkgbase support in 15.0

    Many thanks for your suggestion and the exhaustive testing! So we could confirm that the current pkgbase toolchain needs at least running make buildworld once before building separate kernel .pkg packages. Maybe the author of pkg can resolve this extra dependency (if it is), or IMHO we should...

    Call for testing: pkgbase support in 15.0

    After extensive testing, to create custom kernel packages one must build and create with the buildworld, buildkernel KERNCONF=<MYCUSTOMKCONF>, and packages targets on the first run.

    Could you please tell me why it said my previous built was from wrong packagesite and whether I did the right thing by creating FreeBSD.conf? What should I do as a precaution if pkg update fails in the near furure? Thank you.
