I tried to copy FREEBIE as a text file to a floppy so I could e-mail it but I couldn't make it work. 2) I followed the directions in the FREEBSD book. I copied GENERIC and named it FREEBIE. I went thru going to ../../compile/FREEBIE and did a 'make depend' which executed without error. But when I am in the same directory and run 'make' it bombs out with an error trying to reference "midi_***" files, but all I did was try to add "device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1" so my sound card would be supported. What did I do wrong? (I would have sent you the text file, but my ISP only supports Windows based OSs, and question #1 shows what else I tried to do) Any help would be appreciated, even if it is pointing me to help so I can help myself. Thank you for your time. D. Mac Creadie To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
