* Bosko Milekic: > Please show us exactly what you're doing to build the kernel. nothing other than outlined in usr/src/Makefile or the handbook article on making custom kernels. > Try whiping the old kernel build directory and make sure that after > you config you make depend before you make. i had tried this several times without success. now hold on to your seats: sys/kern/genassym.sh looked fishy to me due to its "funny" redirection. it basically does "nm genassym.o | awk '...' > /dev/stdout" to make "#define <constant> <value>" pairs in assym.s. redirecting to /dev/stdout showed nothing on the tube. i checked that, and /dev/stdout turned out to be a regular file instead of a character special device! i think i broke this when playing with rsync i did "rsync localhost::rsync/readme /dev/stdout". i'll verify this and do a PR to the rsync team when i have the time. the line "sh ../../kern/genassym.sh genassym.o > assym.s" is ok, but only after "cd /dev; ./MAKEDEV std". thanks for all your help, clemens
