Dunn" Subject: dmesg: magic number incorrect Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Today I built a new kernel to accommodate the new CD-ROM drive and now when I do "dmesg", dmesg complains about "magic number incorrect". I have no idea which file's magic number is incorrect: /dev/kmem, /kernel, what? Incidentally if I do a "file kernel", I get "unknown pure executable not stripped", even though I didn't build with debugging info. Is this normal? - Julian ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Julian Dunn, System Administrator AEC InfoCenter Inc.
