Oliver Koch schrieb: Hello, is it possible to customize the kernel in the images of the kernel floppies (kern1.flp, kern2.flp, kern3.flp) for FreeBSD 6.2?

You can modify the existing floppy images. boot.flp contains the first part of the kernel and kern*.flp the further parts. Build a custom kernel using makeoptions MODULES_OVERRIDE="" in your kernel configuration file. # cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf # config YOURKERNEL # cd ../compile # make cleandepend; make depend # make Take your kernel file and compress it: # gzip -9nc kernel > kernel.gz Now you can use the 'split-file.sh' script from src/release/scripts to split the compressed kernel into parts. # /usr/src/release/scripts/split-file.sh kernel.gz destdir 1392 Kernel You can mount a floppy disk image with the following commands: # mdconfig -af boot.flp md45 # mount /dev/md45 /mnt Replace the kernel parts with your own. I hope this helps. I havn't tested it before. There are other ways that are more elegant.

customize floppies
Hello, is it possible to customize the kernel in the images of the kernel floppies (kern1.flp, kern2.flp, kern3.flp) for FreeBSD 6.2? I need a custom kernel with a special kernel option for my bge network interface (BGE_FAKE_AUTONEG) to get network access on my Intel Blade. Thanks in advance!
