Yes. (and NO) I suggest that you create a separate directory for the 2.1 tree Mine is in /pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-2.1/src/, but that is because I make it publically available. You might want to use /usr/FreeBSD-2.1/src/ Then use lndir to "clone" it into /usr/src/. That way, your objects and, more importantly, any local modifications, will not polute the distributed tree. CTM is VERY particular that you not modify its tree yourself. ---- Richard Wackerbarth rkw@dataplex.net
