can't build custom kernel
Hackers, Sorry to bother, but two postings to -question of the msg below in two days got now response. I'm dead in the water. tia, Len FreeBSD 4.1.1 from an .iso image Making a custom kernal make depend gives: In file included from ../../i386/isa/isa_compat.c:46: ../../i386/isa/isa_compat.h:42: bw.h: No such file or directory mkdep: compile failed *** Error code 1 I cannot find / -name "bw.h" -print ... this file on our disk. Nor can I find "bw.h" in my -questions archive as a pb for anybody else.

First thing: read /usr/src/UPDATING. The proper procedure to build a kernel is in there. To save you some time: cd /usr/src make buildkernel KERNEL= make installkernel KERNEL= If the build still fails, then yes, you have a legitimate problem. -- Chris BeHanna Software Engineer (at yourfit.com) [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message

With this pb from a fresh 4.1.1 cdrom install, a legit pb or is it me? thanks, Len To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message

There has never been a 'bw.h' file in the FreeBSD tree. How did you install the sources? You might want to delete them and install a fresh set with cvsup. Take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/i386/isa/Attic/isa_compat.h?rev=1.27.2.6&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup for the current version of this file in RELENG_4.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] has since told me his etinc drivers don't work with 4.1.1 so I've got to drop back to 4.1, for which I have the .iso on cdrom. >Good luck, thanks, an fbsd airhead like me needs it.

I also couldn't build a kernel the normal way, but the buildkernel cleaned something, so my preferred method worked again.
