I do seem to be spamming this list lately. For that I apologize. This question, however, is quite legit. Remember those two lockups I had? Well, one of them seems to have damaged something relating to my kernel sources. After I config a kernel and cd to the build directory, and type make, I get this message: ./genassym: permission denied So naturally I tried making it user-executable (all this as root of course) but it didn't work. I got a bunch of other errors that I'm not going to bother to transcribe because I assume the best solution to this is to reinstall the relevant files. So my question is bipartite: 1) Which files do I need to replace? I have a pretty good connection to the net so err on the side of broadness here. 2) What is the best way to effect this replacement? Please don't just say use cvsup because I looked at the man page for it and it's rather opaque. Assume I'm stupid here because this is something I can't afford to screw up. Thanks in advance, Ben
