Make sure you put that name inside the config file too, in its correct place (search for GENERIC in the GENERIC file, you'll see it). 4) cd to ../../compile/NEWCONFIGFILENAME 5) make depend 6) make 7) If no errors, make install, then reboot and cross your fingers. I mount my cd with 'mount -t cd9660 /dev/cd0a /cdrom'. ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@eng.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 9120 Edmonston Ct #302 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run Journey2 and n3lxx, both FreeBSD (301) 220-2114 | version 2.2 current -- and great FUN! ----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
