Like I would see "386-sequent-dynix" on an old 8-CPU Sequent machine. Or "alphaev56-dec-osf4.0d" on an Alpha. Or "sparc-sun-sunos4.1.3" on an older Sun box. Since PC hardware is sort of generic, it's left at "unknown". Sometimes I've seen "i386-pc-freebsd", though. -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
