Hi, all..
I have a PS/2 mouse. In order to make my Microsoft mouse work, I did
rebuild the kernel as follows,
1) % cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
2) % cp GENERIC GENERIC_MOUSE
3) edit the GENERIC_MOUSE by inserting following 2 lines,
options ALLOW_CONFLICT_IOADDR
device psm0 at isa? port "IO_KBD" tty irq 12 vector psmintr
4) % config GENERIC_MOUSE
5) % cd ../../compile/GENERIC_MOUSE
6) % make depend
7) % make
8) % mv /kernel /kernel.old
9) % mv kernel /kernel
8) % sync
9) % reboot
But the booting with a newly built kernel is HUNG at the last stage:
changing root device to /dev/sd0a"
No matter what I typed, system does not respond.
Even when I tried with "/usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT" by uncommenting
options ALLOW_CONFLICT_IOADDR
, I had the same problem....
I have a MICRON Powerstation plus, which has a PS/2 style mouse with
PCI SCSI-2 1G disk.
I have 3 questions:
Are there anybody who has same experience like me ( I hope not!! )?
Why that happens? and,
In case of that situation, what is the best thing I can do
except reinstall from the scratch?
Thanks.
Regards,
