The Handbook says the GENERIC should be in /usr/src/sys/i386, but I don't even have anything in the /usr/src directory let alone the sys. I do have a file named kernel on my / directory and a kernel.GENERIC in the same place. I seem to have a /sys directory, but when I try to cd to it, BSD tells me there is no such directory. And vi denies it is a file. Anyway, the Handbook seems to be wrong for version 2.1. Are there instructions somewhere so I can get the nonexistant devices out of the kernel?? Thanks, Dale Benzer
