FreeBSD can handle a filesystem, and a file, that's larger than the disk you can buy. About 2^64 bytes, to be exact. That would be 16 billion gigabytes (give or take a few). -crl -- Chad R.

I started out with a fairly customized dial floppy which didn't work. I figured I may have unconfigured a required entry so I then re-cvsupped to restore the old configurations, made clean, customized the kernel, removed ssh from the dial floppy, and rebuilt, still no luck. I've also tried a customized kernel with the net floppy and still no ppp -alias.

I use a custom version of PicoBSD to clone hard drives of workstations running FreeBSD and NT over the network, thus being able to build a custom version of PicoBSD is quite useful for my job. :) To my dismay, I found that the recent changes to Pico's build scripts broke that. So, I fixed it with the attached patch. I've built my custom version successfully several times with this patch. I would appreciate feedback and testing so that this can get committed. --- John Baldwin -- http://www.cslab.vt.edu/~jobaldwi/ PGP Key: http://www.cslab.vt.edu/~jobaldwi/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use
