Without commenting on the wisdom of your idea (others can do that), one thing that's definitely helpful when modifying the kernel is to get a remote GDB session going. This lets you run GDB in its full glory on the kernel. You can single step, list files, etc. Check out the FreeBSD handbook for how to do this. You need two machines to do this of course. -Archie ___________________________________________________________________________ Archie Cobbs * Whistle Communications, Inc. * http://www.whistle.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
