If you have built them once, then try (with anything except csh):

$ cd /bsd/src/etc
$ KERNELS_DONE= nbmake snapshot
$ nbmake iso-image

You can also add 'INSTALL_DONE=' to avoid trundling though all the rest of
the build.  Useful if you know you've rebuilt the bits you need.

Some processing of the kernels does go on, but it is a lot quicker than
the builds.  If it annoys me enough I might work out where it happens
and add appropriate dependencies.
