I'm comming from IBM OS/390 mainframe and don't know anything on Unix like systems. I'm a C/C++ developper too. My question beeing very simple, i think you don't need technical information, but see on * lines below. Q : how to launch the "Kernel Configuration Menu" script as described on Ch 2.3.2 (fig. 2.1) ? i don't have any option to do that on the Loader Menu (i tried all) i tried to "grep-find" the script (or command) but fails. * i'm using/booting from FreeBSD 5.2.1, disc-1 * boot0 & boot1 are Ok * Loader Ok * Sysinstall running Ok Note : a mini-install of 5.2.1 is currently installed on my HDD and seem to work properly. I would like to configure more accurately my Kernel now. Great thanks, FreeBSD is exactly what i want, -- Valéry Seys / Paris-France
