Hi, all.
I've recently installed FreeBSD 2.2.6 onto my new laptop, using the
CD and the PAO boot floppy. Everything went well and I was able to
configure and build a PAO kernel. (I did have a hard time finding a PC
ethernet card that would work, but eventually did.)
I was under the impression that I could track the -stable release
using cvsup and still maintain PAO support. However, my first attempt
failed, and I don't know why. I hope that this is the proper list to
address - there doesn't seem to be any other avenue for PAO support.
Here's what I did...
cvsup stable-supfile
make world These worked...
config TOOTS
make depend
make This failed, complaining about
undefined pcic_intr and pcicdriver.
By commenting out the PCIC lines in the kernel config file, I was able
to build a kernel successfully, but (of course) it doesn't recognize
my PC ethernet card any more. It appears that cvsup'ing the stable
sources may have overwritten the PAO patches/changes.
After that initial failure, I've also cvsup'ed the PAO packages from
jaz.jp.freebsd.org, using the directions on the PAO web page, but the
stuff that I got (sys and kit) is in it's own hierarchy, and I don't
know how to integrate it. To add insult to injury, jaz.jp.freebsd.org
is now rejecting any attempt to cvsup, so I can't even do any more
experiments! :-)
If someone can point out the error of my ways, or even better, point
me to the documentation for what I'm trying to do, I'd really
appreciate it.
Thanks.
Steve
