Kernel Rebuild for DVD burner not good. FreeBSD

I was trying to follow the directions previously given:

https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/22540657/failing-to-burn-DVD-on-freeBSD-6-2.html

the makes failed like this:

nstall -o root -g wheel -m 555   if_lagg.ko /boot/kernel
install -o root -g wheel -m 555   if_lagg.ko.symbols /boot/kernel
===> if_ndis (install)
install -o root -g wheel -m 555   if_ndis.ko /boot/kernel
install: if_ndis.ko: No such file or directory

I was going to ask why that should work, but I guess I can classify it under "reboot."

It seems there are no errors now. I don't have any blank disks with me. I will get to that later and
let you know.

KV_BSD# man config
CONFIG(8)               FreeBSD System Manager's Manual              CONFIG(8)

NAME
     config -- build system configuration files

SYNOPSIS
     config [-CVgp] [-d destdir] SYSTEM_NAME
     config [-x kernel]

DESCRIPTION
     The config utility builds a set of system configuration files from the
     file SYSTEM_NAME which describes the system to configure.  A second file
     tells config what files are needed to generate a system and can be aug-
     mented by configuration specific set of files that give alternate files
     for a specific machine (see the FILES section below).

     Available options and operands:

     -V           Print the config version number.

     -C           If the INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE is present in a configuration
                  file, kernel image will contain full configuration files
                  included literally (preserving comments).  This flag is kept
                  for backward compatibility.

     -d destdir   Use destdir as the output directory, instead of the default
                  one.  Note that config does not append SYSTEM_NAME to the
                  directory given.

     -g           Configure a system for debugging.

     -x kernel    Print kernel configuration file embedded into a kernel file.
                  This option makes sense only if options INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE
                  entry was present in your configuration file.

     -p           Configure a system for profiling; for example, kgmon(8) and
                  gprof(1).  If two or more -p options are supplied, config
                  configures a system for high resolution profiling.

     SYSTEM_NAME  Specify the name of the system configuration file containing
                  device specifications, configuration options and other sys-
                  tem parameters for one system configuration.

     The config utility should be run from the conf subdirectory of the system
     source (usually /sys/ARCH/conf), where ARCH represents one of the archi-
     tectures supported by FreeBSD.  The config utility creates the directory
     ../compile/SYSTEM_NAME or the one given with the -d option as necessary
     and places all output files there.  The output of config consists of a
     number of files; for the i386, they are: Makefile, used by make(1) in
     building the system; header files, definitions of the number of various
     devices that will be compiled into the system.

     After running config, it is necessary to run ``make depend'' in the
     directory where the new makefile was created.  The config utility prints
     a reminder of this when it completes.

     If any other error messages are produced by config, the problems in the
     configuration file should be corrected and config should be run again.
     Attempts to compile a system that had configuration errors are likely to
     fail.

DEBUG KERNELS
     Traditional BSD kernels are compiled without symbols due to the heavy
     load on the system when compiling a ``debug'' kernel.  A debug kernel
     contains complete symbols for all the source files, and enables an expe-
     rienced kernel programmer to analyse the cause of a problem.  The debug-
     gers available prior to 4.4BSD-Lite were able to find some information
     from a normal kernel; gdb(1) provides very little support for normal ker-
     nels, and a debug kernel is needed for any meaningful analysis.

     For reasons of history, time and space, building a debug kernel is not
     the default with FreeBSD: a debug kernel takes up to 30% longer to build
     and requires about 30 MB of disk storage in the build directory, compared
     to about 6 MB for a non-debug kernel.  A debug kernel is about 11 MB in
     size, compared to about 2 MB for a non-debug kernel.  This space is used
     both in the root file system and at run time in memory.  Use the -g
     option to build a debug kernel.  With this option, config causes two ker-
     nel files to be built in the kernel build directory:

     o   kernel.debug is the complete debug kernel.

     o   kernel is a copy of the kernel with the debug symbols stripped off.
         This is equivalent to the normal non-debug kernel.

     There is currently little sense in installing and booting from a debug
     kernel, since the only tools available which use the symbols do not run
     on-line.  There are therefore two options for installing a debug kernel:

     o   ``make install'' installs kernel in the root file system.

     o   ``make install.debug'' installs kernel.debug in the root file system.

FILES
     /sys/conf/files                list of common files system is built from
     /sys/conf/Makefile.ARCH        generic makefile for the ARCH
     /sys/conf/files.ARCH           list of ARCH specific files
     /sys/ARCH/compile/SYSTEM_NAME  default kernel build directory for system
                                    SYSTEM_NAME on ARCH.

SEE ALSO
     config(5)

     The SYNOPSIS portion of each device in section 4.

     Building 4.3 BSD UNIX System with Config.

HISTORY
     The config utility appeared in 4.1BSD.

     Before support for -x was introduced, options INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE
     included entire configuration file that used to be embedded in the new
     kernel.  This meant that strings(1) could be used to extract it from a
     kernel: to extract the configuration information, you had to use the com-
     mand:

           strings -n 3 kernel | sed -n 's/^___//p'

BUGS
     The line numbers reported in error messages are usually off by one.

So you told me wrong?


    729 COMMON ITEMS:
    730
    731         General Notes
    732         -------------
    733         Avoid using make -j when upgrading.  From time to time in the
    734         past there have been problems using -j with buildworld and/or
    735         installworld.  This is especially true when upgrading between
    736         "distant" versions (eg one that cross a major release boundary
    737         or several minor releases, or when several months have passed
    738         on the -current branch).
    739
    740         Sometimes, obscure build problems are the result of environment
    741         poisoning.  This can happen because the make utility reads its
    742         environment when searching for values for global variables.
    743         To run your build attempts in an "environmental clean room",
    744         prefix all make commands with 'env -i '.  See the env(1) manual
    745         page for more details.
    746
    747         When upgrading from one major version to another it is generally
    748         best to upgrade to the latest code in the currently installed branch
    749         first, then do an upgrade to the new branch. This is the best-tested
    750         upgrade path, and has the highest probability of being successful.
    751         Please try this approach before reporting problems with a major
    752         version upgrade.
    753
    754         To build a kernel
    755         -----------------
    756         If you are updating from a prior version of FreeBSD (even one just
    757         a few days old), you should follow this procedure.  It is the most
    758         failsafe as it uses a /usr/obj tree with a fresh mini-buildworld,
    759
    760         make kernel-toolchain
    761         make -DALWAYS_CHECK_MAKE buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE
    762         make -DALWAYS_CHECK_MAKE installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE
    763
    764         To test a kernel once
    765         ---------------------
    766         If you just want to boot a kernel once (because you are not sure
    767         if it works, or if you want to boot a known bad kernel to provide
    768         debugging information) run
    769         make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE KODIR=/boot/testkernel
    770         nextboot -k testkernel
    772         To just build a kernel when you know that it won't mess you up
    773         --------------------------------------------------------------
    774         This assumes you are already running a 5.X system.  Replace
    775         ${arch} with the architecture of your machine (e.g. "i386",
    776         "alpha", "amd64", "ia64", "pc98", "sparc64", etc).
    777
    778         cd src/sys/${arch}/conf
    779         config KERNEL_NAME_HERE
    780         cd ../compile/KERNEL_NAME_HERE
    781         make depend
    782         make
    783         make install
    784
    785         If this fails, go to the "To build a kernel" section.

This is a different disk. I have three disks. Why do you have to be such an ambiguous abusive *@#&, gheist?  You give arcane instructions and get angry when I don't understand them.

Right now I have a little disaster.  I was only able to complete one of cubeeg's clearly stated, perfect
syntax commands that doesn't assume I can read your mind or have some minutia knowledge that one
allegedly gains from reading the handbook three times.  I  have 2 books on FreeBSD administration,
I read the one completely and have had time to get half through the other.  You get mad at me because
I try to follow instructions that you give that are incomplete, and I don't have time to spend hours trying
to google things that I don't even know what to google.

The puter took forever to boot up (it is old HW, the same laptop frame but I have the newest HD
that is not a dual boot I think.  Right now my guess is that I better do the second step suggested  by
cubeeg, namely  make installkernel..

preempting gheist's abusive prejudiced nonsense, I think my FreeBSD 7.0 has been working pretty
well.  I haven't bothered figuring out how to get sound working again, I can't run flash, but I can run
browsers and terminals and that it fine for my purposes.  gcc also works fine and easy and I have
a nice command line that is familiar to me that I have been using such similar commandlines since 1985.
Right now the situation is that gnome is coming up very slow but I cannot multitask.  It came up with
desktop icons at first, and I clicked "start terminal" and "start screenshot" and "start epiphany" many times but right now I have a terminal I have su-ed so I will do make installkernel and reboot and see
what happens.  The desktop icons have disappeared, but I can see the green grass background and
the toolbar thing at the bottom.  Instead of having a destop menu system "applications.. etc" it has been
replaced with the terminal menus "file..etc"

I have uploaded a number of my "abusive activities" on this free photoserver that predates the dot
com crash run by a friend from my "crashing class at Berzerkeley" days when I put computer science
aside and went for molecular biology

You can see my laptop model numbers

Here I am buying one new hard drive:

More RAM I think

I have one HD that has 60GB I think.. that is the one that makes clunky sounds but
still runs.  It has a dead MS Vista partition and is running FreeBSD 6.2 I think.  I have
another that has 120GB and a third that has 160GB I think it is.

Here is a picture of two of my hard drives:

Each time I got a new hard drive, I got a new "enclosure"  Here is my second enclosure's box:

This set of pictures was when I bought the second hard drive I think

For better or for worse, I have got a terminal, and have run the commmand in /usr/src :

make installkernel KERNCONF=KAYVE_KERN

Now the terminal window went away, replaced by a screenshot.  I must roll my rollychair over
there away from this windoze machine and kill that.  Maybe I should make a new screenshot.

You do realize I am booting from another disk now.  Did you look at the makesplats?  The directions
you gave were very direct, as were those in /usr/src/UPDATING  gheist, not so much as he didn't
provide a $PATH.  The pursuits failed  as clearly showed in the original post.

I want to be able to screw the 120GB disk back into the master slot.  This place right here:

http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/swap/p3310450.vhtml

Did you follow the link?  When I made those past few posts, to avoid a situation such as depicted
as "crazy.png" I screwed an old hard drive into that master slot.  This one:

http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/swap/p3310457.vhtml

It's marked "clunky" because after running for a while, it sometimes makes strange sounds.  With
that hard disk in the master slot, I am then running FreeBSD 6.2 and the disk with 120GB.. this one:

http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/swap/p3310469.0.jpg

Here you can see me sliding it into the purple "nexstar" enclosure

http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/swap/p3310470.vhtml

Since I have slid it into nexstar, I mounted it under /mnt/nexstar.  Under /dev, it appears as the /dev/da1
device instead of the ad0 device. I only did that to get the "makeinstallkernel.log" file which I included.

I am sorry if this is all so involved.  I have to try to ask FreeBSD.
