This question would probably be better sent to freebsd-questions@freebsd.org and when asking questions it is often helpful to include the information returned by the 'uname -a' command. But anyway, if you are following the instructions in the handbook exactly there must be a problem with your kernel configuation file. Try going back to the GENERIC kernel and compile that, to make sure that you can compile kernels sucessfully. Then try making the changes you want one-by-one. That way you'll find the change which is causing the problem. And in between compilations make sure that you remove everything in the /usr/src/sys/compile/ http://sour.cream.org PGP Key Available From Public Servers To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
