I think 'dset' is still broken for ELF kernels. As I mentioned before, either we fix it, or replace it with a /kernel.config generator. I have written such a program, the question is: do we want to use it? So, I'd say, your only option for now is to manually write a /kernel.config file and load it. You need to run /boot/loader to be able to load /kernel.config. There's currently no other way to do it. Once you created this file, stick this invocation into your /boot/boot.conf: load /kernel load -t userconfig_script /kernel.config Andrzej Bialecki -------------------- ++-------++ ------------------------------------- ||PicoBSD|| FreeBSD in your pocket?
