Manually Making HP-UX Kernels

Introduction / Philosophy

Beware that before you start you probably want to use sam just to regenerate the *same* kernel! Sam puts a lot of drivers in without them even being requested. Not that this means the kernel will support more hardware, but it does mean that the config file /stand/system will be put into a "normalised" state, making manual updates and sam updates less different. Specifically the following drivers are added by sam:

CharDrv
asp
c720
core
foreign
framebuf
ite
klog
lasi
netman
pa
sctl
strpty_included
wsio

and the following drivers are removed:

nm

Sam *does* see changes made manually to /stand/system.

The command to actually remake the kernel is:

# mk_kernel -o /stand/vmunix -v
# sync; sync; sync; reboot
