FreeBSD 6.2-PRERELEASE #0: Wed Sep 20 17:29:57 BRT 2006 root@offset.freebsdbrasil.com.br:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/TINYBSD Timecounter "i8254" frequency 1193182 Hz quality 0 CPU: AMD Enhanced Am486DX4/Am5x86 Write-Back (Unknown-class CPU) Origin = "AuthenticAMD" Id = 0x494 Stepping = 4 Features=0x1<FPU> panic: CPU class not configured Uptime: 1s Awww shucks.... so much for the image. I saw "Soekris boards" and got my hopes up. Maybe I'll up a Qemu image of -CURRENT and give it a try. As an aside, is there a particular reason you advocate using the PREFIX variable when installing additional software rather than chrooting? It seems to me the latter would be simpler than trying to chase path changes through subordinate dependencies. (Ref: http://www.tinybsd.org/tinybsd/Documentation) Disclaimer - I'm a newbie to TinyBSD although I've been playing with NanoBSD and Pebble/Pyramid on my Soekris board for a while.
