Hi,

i fetched the 1.6 release source (-rnetbsd-1-6).
I was used to see in /usr/src (or where ever someone downloaded
the source code) a CHANGES-1.5.3 for example.
However, in the source code for 1.6 i dont see a changes file anywhere.
It is my mistake or?

Normally i build the kernel source like /usr/src/sys/arch/{ARCH}/conf
cp GENERIC bla
config bla
cd ../compile/bla
make depend
make
cp /netbsd /netbsd.old && cp netbsd /

[reboot]

to rebuild a source tree
cd /usr/src
find . -type l -name obj | xargs rm
make cleandir
make obj
make build

However, several other things have changed in 1.6, there is also
a build.sh file in there. So should i build using different syntaxes now
or should i use the old ways?
Bye,

Mipam.
