Do people think that would be a useful item to include? I was thinking of just having a /boot/kernel-smp directory, for people to load in if they want to try it. I just want it on the CD's, it doesn't need to be automatically installed. (I've been doing a string of installs lately, and I always end up saying "I need to compile the SMP kernel, but if I'm going to do that then I should first cvsup and do a buildworld -- but that means I won't have the smp kernel for the buildworld...) -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
