Just to give some information to those trying the same as I did. The base was a 4.3-STABLE system, last refreshed on 2001-04-24. On top of that I installed the i4b out of the -current branche, as done with the addon provieded for this. BTW: This system ran ok with version i4b-00-96-00 as overinstalled some time ago. The first thing before doing any cvs upgrade to 4.3-STABLE was to removed it with overuninstall. Some of the catches I ran into: - While doing the make in src/usr.sbin/i4b it tried to make the manpages for .1 (say in the isdnd directory for isdnd.1) which gave the message don't know how to make isdnd.1 and aborted. I could not find any reference why it would want to make that, as the define MAN clearly stated isdnd.8. Commenting out this line did not help, so I made a ln -s for isdnd.1 to isdnd.8. This was the same in most of the subdirectories of i4b. - The isdnmonitor facility did no more work. Browsing through the list I found that the define I4B_EXTERNAL_MONITOR was not set while building the source that way, so I added the line I4B_EXTERNAL_MONITOR = 1 at the top of isdnd/Makefile, which re-enabled the functionality. - The I saw some very strange messages at startup, which I can't explain. dmesg shows them as follows: ERROR: "i4bctl" bmaj but is not a disk ERROR: "i4btel" bmaj but is not a disk ERROR: "i4brbch" bmaj but is not a disk ERROR: "i4btrc" bmaj but is not a disk ERROR: "i4b" bmaj but is not a disk My first though was that something with the device files was wrong. But they were all rebuild with the MAKEDEV as in 4.3-STABLE as of that time. It doesn't seem to have any side-effect, but it's strange anyway. The first two items needed intervention to make it work, the third is just somewhat strange. Any comments on that?
