(chuckle) i lost 2.2.7 the other night during a 3.0-beta install (my error). the reason i brought it up was due to the fact i had no problems in getting the stuff off doug's freefall site at www.freebsd.org/~dfr/ using the same method. i know you folks are busy and jordan did let me know there was some work being done to establish a ftp alpha repository. yes, please send me a copy. best2u and thank you, curtis Mike Smith wrote: > > > thanks jordan, > > > > (smile) been there, done it, but my question was directed > > at the "kernel.MULTIA" file listed on msmith's page & the > > possibility of putting the "GENERIC"/related development > > kernels on the ftp site, as well. > > Did you manage to get a copy of this file eventually?
