Oops. You're using an ELF kernel, I trust (you must, because you got 3.0-current on Monday). Check OBJFORMAT in /sys/compile/KERNELNAME/Makefile just to be sure, though. I do remember that modules in general used to crash a.out kernels back in the days when a.out kernels were actually used... My -current machine is presently awaiting a new disk which should, uh, "make it more useful" (the disk should be arriving today; I'll make time to install it over the weekend). I hope to be able to help you out more then. > I hand made the directory then did make install > because it kept makeing just modules file in the root directory. > It then made a svr4.ko within the module directory. > This is on 3.0-current from off the net on monday. The fact that /modules didn't exist already leads me to believe that perhaps you haven't done a "make world" since you grabbed -current (since /modules *should* be in the mtree file that make world uses). I don't expect the emulator to work at all if you haven't done a "make world" and then built a kernel. Could it be that you're still running an old release even though you have -current sources? Which release did you have before you grabbed -current? > Can someone help or give me a correct module. > I followed the diretions and did the patches. I'll check it out when I get the -current box up and running. > I'm trying to get Lotus > notes client on Freebsd that was made for sun Hmm, that could be interesting. Bear in mind that the emulator is still in early days, though. - mark -------------------------------------------------------------------- I tried an internal modem, newton@atdot.dotat.org but it hurt when I walked.
