Really? Ok, I left out that I had cp-ed LINT to "GEORGE386" and then edited that, but ok (and yes I enclosed it in "" in the config file's "ident"). >However, your problem is likely more related to bugs in the 2.0 distribution. >If you have ftp access, get the 2.0-950322-SNAP release from Sure? The thing is, I don't have ftp running on the BSD-box (or any other net-stuff), so I'd have to ftp everything to my mac first, and then go through the msdos partition on the BSD, machine to get it on there; a lot of bs to go through only to find out I had to uncomment something somewhere (or whatever). I didn't think I was pushing anything here, I just want to be able to compile the GENERIC kernel on my lame 386/25. The 2.0R should at least be able to do THAT, right? I'll see if I can get any doc's on what 950322 fixes, or improves, and go from there. In the mean time if anyone has a different clue, please share l8r, george. P.S. In general I aggree that one should run the latest versions. ============================================================= e-mail : kroonder@knoware.nl | I prefer the wicked to the phone : +31-ido-not-thinkso | foolish.
