Hi, The default 5.4 kernel does include the MK-III patches from Soren as the 6.0 default Kernel does. I have problems installing the 5.4 Release on my system because I am missing these patches. I have tried burning a cd while replacing the kernel with a recompiled one but apparently the mfsroot.flp is not well updated against the new kernel. I am relatively new to FreeBSD and don`t understand well the exact booting process even after some readings on forums and web sites. Could a gentle someone explain how the modify the original 5.4 Iso and replace the stock kernel ? Thanks in advance for any help regarding this. P.S. If I am not in the right mailing-list for this or if question is of too low degree, please simply disregard the post. __________________________________________________________ Lèche-vitrine ou lèche-écran ? magasinage.yahoo.ca
