I guess I'd consider moving both down to somewhere like nnpfs/sys or nnpfs/kernel or something.

Yeah, glancing at the kernel build itself, there's bold symlink just like what I did; lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 25 Jan 25 18:43 machine -> /usr/src/sys/i386/inc= lude It would be nice if either the kernel sources would have /usr/src/sys/i386/machine or /usr/src/sys/i386/include/machine instead of ending in include *or* as you suggest a make-kernel-headers in the kernel itself would be nice and it could do the symlinking, vnode_if.awk'ing, etc. for people. But if this works for you, and Robert doesn't object, let's go with it. =20 Robert, any thoughts? And do you want me to take a whack at merging nnpfs into the kernel build this weekend? I'd be jumping right into the deep end, but that's how you learn to swim, right? --=20 Alec Kloss alec@SetFilePointer.com IM: angryspamhater@yahoo.com PGP key at http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=3Dget&search=3D0xA241980E "No Bunny!" -- Simon, from Frisky Dingo --L6iaP+gRLNZHKoI4 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFHx/+l2s33paJBmA4RApAbAJ47dRvzzPklO8YM/ZqSZCrBETnTCACeL5dC SOmqd32ovxJzc5ELQK2Pzuc= =PfoU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --L6iaP+gRLNZHKoI4--
