I've gotten the OS installed, but was curious as to how I'd go about building an SMP kernel, or if it's even possible/advisable on this system. It's been eons since I've built a kernel. :P All of the sources are installed, so if there's a way to do it, I shouldn't have a problem. Second issue. I'm behind an HTTP proxy here at Compaq, and I would very much like to use FTP to get the latest ports via the ports collection. How would I go about setting up the ports collection to use the proxy correctly? Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
