Hello, I have been trying to become successful in building a new kernel. My machine is not complicated, and all the devices work under the generic kernel that comes with fbsd 2.2.1. I rebuilt the kernel and when I try to boot up with it I get this error: mgetty fatal: aa1 mod: cannot open line /dev/cuaa1 mgetty fatal: aa1 open device /dev/cuaa1 failed mgetty fatal: aa1 cannot get terminal line exiting This will repeat until I reboot. The booting proccess will stop with another message about "something happening too quickly" and sleeps for 30 seconds. I pretty sure that is the order that the error messages come in. My box has a 28.8 modem that works fine using term in user ppp mode, though I want to put kernel ppp to work. Here is a copy of my kernel configuration file. I appreciate any input.
