(I am assuming that the kernel rebuild attempt was done before any update to the box.) Hmmn, if you cant build GENERIC (or a duplicate of it), then there are definatly (hardware ???) problems with the box. I am no expert on this issue, but I cannot think of any other advise to offer. Hopefully someone else can prove me wrong and come up with a solution. > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Ron Freidel > Sent: Wednesday, May 29, 2002 10:13 PM > To: Aaron Burke > Cc: FreeBSD-Questions; Ron Freidel > Subject: Re: Compiling troubles > > > At first I just wanted to build the kernel to add device pcm for my > sound card, the kernel wouldn't build without errors, I followed the > instructions to the letter too.
