  Well, I've been having trouble getting a kernel to boot with both  ncrscsi and 
sbc lines commented out.  My boot message shows "esp0 at obio" 
I have an external hardrive, and an internal apple cdrom drive.  
Is it possible that I need the "ncrscsi0" line left in the kernel
configuration file?

Also, when building a kernel ( named "mykern"), if I go through the complete
procedure and 
build a kernel that doesn't work; then I want to change that kernel's
configuration
file and try again, should I delete the ../compile/mykern directory completely 
before typing the "config mykern" command?  Or can I leave the old
../compile/mykern directory there and just proceed as normal?:

config mykern
cd ../compile/mykern
make depend
make

If I don't need to delete the old ../compile/mykern directory, do I still need
to type "make depend" everytime I make a change to the "../conf/mykern"
configuration
file?


Has anyone found a sure fire way to build kernels that will boot that don't
have the "debug" feature enabled?
