With this setup, the easiest way seems to patch the kernel sources so that it always assumes that userconfig must be entered. Another one could be to build a kernel with userconfig_boot option and use /kernel.config (but i am not sure if at that point of the boot process in a diskless machien things can work..., i suspect not) Third one (but it requires altering the EPROM code) is to add yet another option to bootp to indicate that userconfig should be entered cheers luigi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
