In-Reply-To: Message from Mark Ovens of "Sat, 05 Aug 2000 15:08:15 BST." <20000805150815.C254@parish> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Mon, 07 Aug 2000 11:01:04 -0400 From: Robert Withrow Sender: owner-freebsd-emulation@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org marko@freebsd.org said: :- I originally built it with the latest port (Makefile rev 1.20) but in :- another thread here it implied/suggested that the previous Makefile :- (rev 1.19) may be better, so I grabbed that and tried it - no :- different. I'm guessing that 4.1-RC is not supported by *any* version of the VMWare port... But you'd need to check with the maintainer for sure. Comment: I know I sound like a broken record, but it would be much better if the VMWare port were configured so that all *released* versions of FBSD >= 4.0, at least, were supported. I'm not smart enough to do the work myself, but I can volunteer to test versions on 4.0 Rel. -- Robert Withrow -- (+1 978 288 8256) BWithrow@BayNetworks.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
