freebsd-update and custom kernels<\/a><\/p>\n

Upgrades from one minor version of FreeBSD to another, like from FreeBSD 9.0<\/code> to FreeBSD 9.1<\/code>, are called minor version<\/strong> upgrades. Major version<\/strong> upgrades occur when FreeBSD is upgraded from one major version<\/strong> to another, like from FreeBSD 9.X<\/code> to FreeBSD 10.X<\/code>. Both types of upgrades can be performed by providing freebsd-update<\/code> with a release version target.<\/p>\n

How to keep freebsd-update from trashing custom kernel?<\/a>
\nFreeBSD Boot Process<\/a><\/p>\n
\r\nJust an idea, not tested: Leave the GENERIC kernel updated\r\nby freebsd-update, and put your own kernel unter a different\r\nname into \/boot, for example:\r\n\r\n\t\/boot\/kernel\/kernel\t\t<- GENERIC kernel\r\n\t\/boot\/mykernel\/kernel\t\t<- your kernel\r\n\r\nThen change \/boot\/loader.conf to contain:\r\n\r\n\tkernel="mykernel"\r\n\tbootfile="\/boot\/mykernel\/kernel"\r\n<\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
