But those files aren't linux. I don't quite catch what you mean when you say 'need to be placed in a "compat" directory'. Would you mind explaning to me how that can be done or pointing me some url to learn more about it (I mean, learn about how "compat" directory works) ? I'm going to follow your advice and Im going to start the "make buildworld" again, problably in a couple of days. Thank you very much for your help!!!
