Have a look at the handbook at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/index.html, specifically, http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html kernel.GENERIC is the generic kernel that gets installed at installation time and is there in case you mess up your custom kernel, so you can boot with the generic one. kernel.old is your old kernel from the previous compile. ---Mike Mike Tancsa (mdtancsa@sentex.net) Sentex Communications Corp, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada "Given enough time, 100 monkeys on 100 routers could setup a national IP network."
