Hello, After 3 hours, i made my bootable FreeBSD CD/Floppies. Actually, i finished my install.cfg but i have a problem because i don't understand the final step : # mkdir /img # cd $CHROOTDIR/R/cdrom/disk1/floppies /* Get mfsroot.gz from mfsroot.flp */ # vnconfig /dev/vn0c mfsroot.flp # mount /dev/vn0c /img # cp /img/mfsroot.gz . # umount /img # vnconfig -u /dev/vn0c /* Unzip mfsroot.gz to get mfsroot */ # gunzip mfsroot.gz /* Put your config file in mfsroot */ # vnconfig /dev/vn0c mfsroot # mount /dev/vn0c /img # cp install.cfg /img/. # umount /img # vnconfig -u /dev/vn0c /* (If you 'gzip mfsroot' here, you can use that for bootable mfsroot.flp for floppies) */ /* Put mfsroot in kernel so that it will read it when boot time */ # vnconfig /dev/vn0c boot.flp # mount /dev/vn0c /img # cp /img/kernel.gz . # gunzip kernel.gz # write_mfs_in_kernel -f kernel mfsroot /* write_mfs_in_kernel can be found at /usr/src/release. Compile it if you haven't. */ # gzip kernel # cp kernel.gz /img/. # umount /img # vnconfig -u /dev/vn0c Can you explain me this part please ? Thank you :) **
