Diff your config file and /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC. Your old kernel should still be there, so make sure you save it (boot /kernel.old and copy it to /kernel.goo in case you have to build several kernels). The diff should tell you what went wrong/what you left out. Terry Lambert terry@cs.weber.edu --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.
