Hello,
    I've got a 6.2 or 3 box that i'm wanting to update to
7.0. I've cvsupped 
my source, made world, and built a kernel, all went
successfully. This is 
the GENERIC kernel. When i do a make installkernel i am
getting the error

kldxref: file isn't dynamically linked

    Is this a show stopping error/ if so is there a
workaround?
Thanks.
Dave.

Hi,

you have to exec "make installworld" before exec
"make installkernel"
..

bye

Hello,
    Previously i've done make buildworld, make buildkernel,
make 
installkernel, shutdown to single user mode, mergemaster -p,
make 
installworld, mergemaster, boot multiuser. Has this
procedure changed?
Thanks.
Dave.

According to:

   http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859
-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html

under the heading "23.4.1 The Canonical Way to Updating
Your System" you 
would be correct.

Someone else will have to pipe in as I do not know the
answer to your 
question. I was just reponding to your procedural response
on updating the 
FBSD OS.

This is harmless and can be ignored.  It's caused by 6.x
utilities
trying to operate on a 7.0 kernel and its loadable modules,
which
doesn't work.  Just proceed with the next steps in the
upgrade 
procedure and it will all work fine.

	Cheers,
