First, to insure that those responsible hear from more than just those who had problems (after all, if you didn't have problems, you don't ask for help, right :-), I'd like to state that my upgrade from a pre-ELF kernel (3.0-RELEASE) to 3.1-STABLE went just fine with a "make ugprade" and a "disklable -B da0". My The problems started *after* I got the new system up. :-( 1) I decided to remake the stuff in /dev."sh MAKEDEV all" didn't make da0s1a and friends. This means that after booting single user, I couldn't "mount -u /", cause that device wasn't there. To add insult to injury, I'm using a "dangerously dedicated" drive so da0a is what's really mounted, but that isn't what the kernel reports. Out comes the fixit disk. 2) The new lpt0 driver doesn't seem to work - it says "device not configured" when I try sending text at it. From the config file: # Parallel port - builds, but doesn't work, so... device ppc0 at isa? port? net irq 7 controller ppbus0 device lpt0 at ppbus? controller ppc0 at isa? disable port ? tty irq 7 and from dmesg: ppc0 at 0x378 irq 7 on isa ppc0: Generic chipset (NIBBLE-only) in COMPATIBLE mode ppb0: IEEE1284 device found /NIBBLE Probing for PnP devices on ppbus0: ppbus0: <Hewlett-Packard HP LaserJet 5MP> HP ENHANCED PCL5,PJL,POSTSCRIPT 3) /stand didn't seem to get updated. How do I go about building this? Checking the handbook, the FAQ, the src tree and the FTP site all turn up nothing.
