This is the top level of the MidnightBSD source directory.
Source code is now on github at: https://github.com/MidnightBSD/src/
Most users want to checkout a stable branch rather than use the current development branch called master. Look at the stable branches.
e.g. cd /usr git clone https://github.com/midnightbsd/src.git git checkout stable/1.2

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the MidnightBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the MidnightBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The
buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install
the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of
the Makefile in this directory for more information on the
standard build targets and compile-time flags.
Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation
for which can be found at:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.
Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the
buildkernel'' and
installkernel'' targets, you might need to build
world before. More information is available in the FreeBSD handbook.
