kern.version string in -stable?
Hey, guys!
I've just compiled a kernel for -stable, and the string returned from "sysctl kern.version" displays "root@hostname" instead of "spiderpig@hostname". Section 5 from the FAQ shows that the kernel should be compiled as root instead of a user account, but the -release kernel showed something like "deraadt@openbsd.org". I'm just curious as to how the developers did this. Can kernels be compiled from a user account?
Thanks!
