Create bootable CD
Hi, there. I've downloaded the latest snapshot from FreeBSD-current and I'd like to install it now, to do some tests. The boot-floppies work fine, but I would like to create a bootable CD, because I have some mashines to install on. Would be nice if someone could point me into the right direction. Thanks in advance, Stefan Carstens

Are there mirrors of current.freebsd.org available ?

Warner, I think that a short HOWTO-UPGRADE would benefit to everyone. For example, should I: - keep my old kernel settings (using the glue compatibility layer) or use the new one? (copied from NEWCARD) - make sure that my hints file matches the interrupt of my pcic device? (9 in my case, shared with all the other PCI stuff) - should I still be running pccardd if I choose the new settings? (pccardd reports that no PCCARD can be found in my case) - should I force the IRQ? (if I do that, while keeping the old settings (as pccardd won't start with the new ones albeit it's a new pccardd), then I get a panic using -I -i 9) Thanks.

Re: PCCARD and -current
The kernel configuration that I couldn't get to work was basically GENERIC with SCSI, USB commented out and IPFW added. The one that works is the NEWCARD with almost identical but with the following differences only, I think. #device card# pccard bus #device pcic# pcmcia bridge devicepccard devicecardbus devicepccbb # cardbus (yenta) bridge and the -I -i 10 in my case. Generic still has card and pcic and doesn't have pccard, cardbus and pccbb. Those changes seem to have made my old k-6 laptop a very happy camper.:-) The only problem was it took me three days to find a combination that worked. This helps maintain the level of excitement generated by current, that has abounded recently:-) Thanks for the months of work on the integration fo cardbus into current. ed Quoting Warner Losh [EMAIL PROTECTED]: In message [EMAIL PROTECTED] Edwin Culp writes: : I also had to add options from NEWCARD to my kern cofiguration file. : That is why I couldn't get it to work with my GENERIC based configuration. : I haven't seen that documented, but it worked for me after 3 days of : suffering.
