I can do a make release of either a 3.0 or a 4.0 tree and when i try and boot from the boot floppy, it doesnt find /boot/loader and trying to boot /kernel.gz returns 'invalid format.' How are you guys getting use out of the boot floppies? Or, how do i tell it to include the /boot/loader? 3.0-19990128-SNAP is my current build [but i cant install becuase the boot floppy doesnt boot] -j To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
