I wanted to Last time i tried (to test-compile my latest floppy code), i even wasn't able to config(8) on freefall -- the config program has been changed, but freefall runs -RELEASE. So perhaps the only chance for this is to test-compile on thud which usually runs a more recent kernel. Maybe for most things it would suffice to cp -rp /usr/src/sys into a private directory (or even symlink), and copy over the changed files. Should be less expensive than cvs co'ing sys. -- cheers, J"org work: --- no longer --- private: joerg_wunsch@uriah.sax.de Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
