MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Sender: owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi, I've generated a config file for the kernel from GENERIC by removing the SCSI host adaptors, turned off debugging and built the kernel. The problem is that the kernel image comes out of gcc @ 7Mbytes. This is huge compared to the standard kernel.GENERIC. All I have done is # out the aha entries and any other un-necessary bits. Is there anything silly I'm doing, because kernels really shouldn't be that large! System: FreeBSD 3.2-STABLE, Genuine Intel i686 processor, Genuine Intel SE440BX board. thanks, Chris Smith Raytheon Systems Limited UK To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
