I already have a patched /sys/ tree (that has the driver in it) which was use to generate the kernel. I have a virgin 2.2.6 src tree in /usr/src. Ant pointers to how I would go about making a boot floopy? I assume I need to use the make release mechanism? In that case, is there anyway to just make the floppy? I notice that there is a : KERNELS?= GENERIC line in the /usr/src/release Makefile. does that mean that the boot.floppy made will pick up the GENERIC config file from /sys/i386/conf ? Thanks for any help or pointers. Thanks Viren -- "Endure pain, find joy, and make your own meaning, because the universe certainly isn't going to supply it. Always be a moving target. Live. Live.
