Hello, On FreeBSD 4.7 I recompiled the kernel. Basicly all I did was to remove devices and options that were regarding hardware I do not have (i.e. SCSI controllers, tape drives, USB controllers etc.). Now everything works fine, except some error messages i get when booting. As I have figured it out, the errors are simply there because the kernel does not support them anymore. How can I do it to stop the system from looking for those devices? Here is a sample of dmesg after booting: config> di pcic0 No such device: pcic0 Invalid command or syntax. Type '?' for help config> di sn0 config> di lnc0 ... ... config> di bt0 No such device bt0 Invalid command or syntax. Type '?' for help config> di aic0 No such device bt0 Invalid command or syntax. Type '?' for help ...and so on... :) Regards, Razvan __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Y!

You can just rename the file or remove it. Regards Ian Barnes To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
