I have 430 MB available on /y, is that enough ? Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/sd12h 469591 1 432022 0% /y My primary problem is that I don't want to build the release with the GENERIC kernel but with a custom one. What do I have to do for that ? Replacing GENERIC with FOO in release/Makefile is easy but that means that I have to commit a src/sys/i386/conf/FOO in the RELENG_2_1_0 branch of my CVS tree... I don't want to disturb my updates with CTM. Can I have my own file in the CVS tree without having CTM fell over my face at the next update ? The goal is to install 2.1.0 on a laptop with only 4 MB of RAM (and not that much really available of course). We've seen that a custom kernel will boot on the machine but we need sysinstall with it to install... Thanks for any ideas (Jörg, I saw you've been through this a little :-)) -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- The daemon is FREE! -=- roberto@keltia.frmug.fr.net FreeBSD keltia.freenix.fr 2.2-CURRENT #13: Sat Jan 6 20:08:04 MET 1996
