well, weird for me, anyway. I'm more used to Irix/Solaris/Linux than
FreeBSD...

I made a little configuration file (copied the GENERIC one, as
instructed by the handbook), removed what I didn't need, added a few
bits I did need.

Compiled it, installed it.

Works fine.

I then decided I needed some SYSV-style shared memory, so I put the
appropriate entry in the file.

Tried to compile again (the config program worked, BTW) - the compile
failed. Tried again, it failed at a different stage.

I decided to boot using my GENERIC kernel. Tried the whole config/make
etc process. Still failed.

Thought there was a problem with my configuration file, so I decided to
just try and compile the GENERIC one (after I'd copied it to another
name).

It failed AGAIN.

So, I am

a) Using the standard kernel to boot
b) Trying to compile the same kernel and failing but what really pisses
me off is that
c) It worked the first time I did it.

I reinstalled FreeBSD just in case I'd screwed up something.

The first time I build the kernel it works.

It fails subsequently.

Ideas?

Cheers,

Dimitris
