I'm using NetBSD-0.8 and I'm having some trouble getting swap to work
on my second ide drive.
I built a new kernel with the following options:
config "386bsd" root on wd0 swap on wd0 and wd1
controller isa0
controller wdc0 at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 vector wdintr
disk wd0 at wdc0 drive 0
disk wd1 at wdc0 drive 1
But when the kernel boots I notice some strange differances from the stock
kernel that comes with NetBSD. I'm sure that I'm doing something wrong
but I don't have a clue.
BTW, I copied the GENERICISA file and only made a few mods:
janis:conf {2} diff JANIS GENERICISA
7,8c7,8
< ident JANIS
< timezone 5 dst
---
> ident GENERICISA
> timezone 8 dst
17c17
< config "386bsd" root on wd0 swap on wd0 and wd1
---
> config "386bsd" root on wd0 swap on wd0 and sd0
