I just installed the latest FreeBSD
and it is running great!!!!
However, it seems that the IP
aliasing is not cooked into the
GENERIC kernel. 

I get some error message FILE
EXISTS when running
ifconfig. Is this true? What kernel
modification do I have to make? I
cannot find it anywhere.

Secondly, to save disk space I did
not download source files...that
was a mistake because now I do not
have the files to recook the
kernel. Is there a way to install
just the kernel sources without
having to download the whole
operating system again?

thanks,
