(similar to linux?) Install the kernel sources in /usr/src/sys, cd to /usr/src/sys/i386/conf. The default kernel config file is GENERIC - you can copy this to another file and modify it to match your hardware. The LINT kernel config has pretty much all of the options available. After you have edited your kernel config, do the following: # config # cd ../../compile/ # make depend # make # make install Reboot to activate your new kernel. > Concerning the BSD CD-rom, would you please tell me what includes > in the disc.
