soekris + buildworld/kernel/...

[John Howie]

Hi Julien,

There are a number of ways to do it. My preferred way is to build an image
of a live filesystem with my custom kernel, use dd to write it to a disk
partition on the target machine and then boot from it. I would not bother
with NFS mounting filesystems, etc.

Regards,

John
