Hi, > What do I do for > config kernel root on ????? swap on ????? on 950726-SNAP i use: config kernel root on wd0 there is a "feature" now that requires that you: # dd if=/dev/zero of=/usr/swapfs/swap.<DOMAIN_ADDR>.<CLIENT_ADDR> bs=1024 count=<SWAP_FILE_SIZE> where: <SWAP_FILE_SIZE> = size of swapfile in kilobytes, eg. 20MB would be: 20000 if the swap file is 0 sized you get reboots/panics from the DISKLESS kernel when it starts to swap. i have an (crude) DISKLESS cookbook that I can mail you if you like. i have converted it to a Handbook page, john is now reviewing it for inclusion in the handbook. -- Steve Passe | powered by smp@csn.net | FreeBSD
