Alphastation 200 4/233 w/ 80mb of ram
>Description:
When trying to compile a new kernel, it craps out with the
error of not having the files net.h, netif.h, bootp.h and bootparam.h,
needed by /usr/src/sys/boot/alpha/netboot/../../common/dev_net.h,
now this prevents me from compiling a new kernel, I tried retriving it
from numerous ftp sites and my FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE CD, there is no pty
support in the kernel that comes with the install, and this is putting,
a damper on the potential of this machine.
>How-To-Repeat:
On an alpha arch machine, from /usr/src/sys, try running make depend
, and it will not even be able to complete doing so because of the
missing header files.
>Fix:
Distribute the necessary headerfiles needed by the netboot section
in the boot tree of the sys source code.
