Boy, was I amused when the new kernel died while trying to boot : up. Rebooting with the generic kernel, I caught the message from it saying : a 486-class CPU is detected. Is that right? Or do I have to throw in some : secret switches while making the new kernel? Hmmmm. The Cyrix 586 chips are really 486 at the core, but I thought the 6x86 ones were pentium at the core. Are you sure you have 6x86 chips and not 5x86? Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
