There's the problem, I should have caught it sooner. The SMP kernel sources are mutually exclusive with the mainline kernel sources. When you did the cvsup not only did that modification go away, but almost everything else SMP specific must have gone away! reload the SMP kernel sources into a seperate directory, say /usr/src/smpsys. then cd to /usr/src/smpsys/i386/conf, config, make, install, etc., all in the /usr/src/smpsys tree. When the "include" headers are somewhat out of sync between the mainline code and the SMP code it sometimes becomes necessary to play games where you keep the SMP src in the same tree (ie /usr/src/sys), but since the SMP src and the 3.0-970209-SNAP are in sync you don't need to bother. --- > Should I recompile everything with the SMP kernel? no need. --- >I'll try a kernel without the patch to exception.s, recompile libkvm.a >and dmesg, and see what happens. again, no need. once you get the correct kernel source compiled your problems will go away. -- Steve Passe | powered by smp@csn.net | Symmetric MultiProcessor FreeBSD
