I also would minimise the kernel build for the first build ( no firewall, soundcard, nonessentials ) then add the goodies once you have a successful build. btw does the generic kernel build okay? good luck -- Tom Jackson I'm ProChoice->FreeBSD toj@gorilla.net http://www.freebsd.org tjackson@tulsix.utulsa.edu "Out in the Ozone Again"
