background: i am a new unix user and system admin...only admining to 
myself, really, but anyways.  just installed FreeBSD on my computer and 
have been trying to compile a custom kernel for my computer.

current problem: i edited the kernel with the guidelines given in the 
FreeBSD Handbook, Chapter 5... i "thought" everything was going to be 
ok.  ran config on the kernel and it worked fine.  tried to run "make intend"
and had chaotic and mentally disturbing error.

The error: this is what it said to me...

wds02f: hard error reading from fsbn 89651 of 89640-89679 (wd0s2 bn 
255155; cn 419 tn 10 sn 23)wd0: status 59 <seekdone,drq,err> error 40 
<uncorr>
vnode_pager_input: I/O read error
vm_fault: pager input (probably hardware) error, PID 493 failure

pid 493 (ccl), uid 0: exited on signal 11

*** Error code 1

<that's all of the error>

anyways, i tried to play with the kernel configuration file to find the 
error but only came up with more errors so here is the original config 
file i edited from a copy of KERNEL original.

small other question that may or may not nessacarily (can't spell) tie 
into the first problem:

when i tried to do post-install installation of packages, it let me 
install four packages and then quit letting me.  i installed mc-3.0, 
tcl-7.5, perl-5.002, and mh-6.8.4.  Those worked.  the next one i tried 
was pine-3.91...it gave me a "can nor install...etc, etc... Error Code 1" 
message and has been doing this ever since.  this iritates me, but think 
probably it is something simple i am doing.  can you help me here?

thank you very much for taking the time to read this email and respond.  
i have appreciated FreeBSD, as said in the goal of freebsd section of the 
handbook, as a tool to learn about computers and wish to continue that 
learning.  if you can help, iw will be greatly appreciative.

		thanks,
