makeoptions KERNEL=...

    Well, a read of the Makefile's seems to indicate that the kernel name
    is overriden by INSTKERNNAME during an installkernel.  This variable
    defaults to 'kernel' and might not be overriden by a makeoptions line.
    Try specifying it manually in the 'make installkernel ...' command
    you run.

:Hello,
:
:I've tried to make a kernel install as kernel.GENERIC by specifying
:
:makeoptions	KERNEL=kernel.GENERIC
:
:in its config file (which was named UNACK.GENERIC). make installkernel 
:KERNCONF=UNACK.GENERIC installed it to /kernel, though, despite what the 
:comments in the LINT config file are saying.
:
:What am I doing wrong?
