I doubt whether LINT would compile and even if it does it is NOT RECOMMENDED!! cp /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC mykernel jun> jun> 2.edit and modify some parameters in the file of mykernel,such as: jun> jun> maxusers 256 jun> options "MAXMEM=(512*1024)" jun> options "MAXDSIZ=(512*1024*1024)" jun> options "DFLDSIZ=(512*1024*1024)" jun> options NMBCLUSTERS=4096 Depends on what you wanna do jun> jun> 3.then compile successfully and replace new kernel to the kernel file in jun> the root directory. It should be automatic - just reboot the new kernel after a successful recompile. jun> jun> We think it's ok,when it is rebooted,the server can't load the new jun> kernel and reboot again. jun> jun> jun> Why it is,we need your answers. I have given you the answers. Make these changes in myekernel, derived from GENERIC and try building this. At the moment I hope you can boot kernel.old -Wash -- Odhiambo Washington Inter-Connect Ltd., wash@iconnect.co.ke 5th Flr Furaha Plaza Tel: 254 11 222604 Nkrumah Rd., Fax: 254 11 222636 PO Box 83613 MOMBASA, KE.
