The simplest way to do this is to grab the ssys.aa - ssys.an files and the install.sh script from the src directory on ftp.freebsd.org and do # ./install.sh ssys (If you've got the CDROM, you can do this in the /cdrom/dists/src directory without having to copy them anywhere first). -- James Raynard, Edinburgh, Scotland james@jraynard.demon.co.uk
