building new kernel on upgraded system



Hi All,

I've just tried to build a custom configured kernel on a system that was installed originally as 9.1 and later upgraded to 9.2 and 9.3. Executed in /usr/src

build.sh tools

which ended successfully but the (beginning part of the) summary looks like:

build.sh command: ./build.sh tools
build.sh started: Wed Nov 9 21:56:45 CET 2022
NetBSD version: 9.1_STABLE
MACHINE: amd64
MACHINE_ARCH: x86_64
Build platform: NetBSD 9.3 amd64
HOST_SH: /bin/sh

What does NetBSD version 9.1_STABLE refer to? Weren't the system sources updated during the upgrades? Honestly, I cannot recall how I upgraded the system (sysinst/sysupgrade).

In the end the question is: does that indicate that the custom kernel will be built from a 9.1 source when I issue 'build.sh kernel=MYKERNEL'?

Thanks,
r0ller
