You can even make one > 1.44MB and gzip it first (but remember to call it /kernel.gz or the loader won't be smart enough to un-gzip it). As long as the kernel is compiled with options MFS_ROOT and options MFS, it will know to look for the mfsroot image in memory (which the kern.flp's loader.rc will also ask for). - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
