The other source appeared to be for the unix commands etc. Do you think this might be the problem? Also, is there any chance that our config might be broken? This machine was upgraded from 0.8 to 0.9 by persons other than myself---who knows what happened. Is config changed during the update, and might it have been ommited? For instance, the subr_mcount.o that it first complains about is meant to be part of some profiling option that I have *not* selected. In fact, I see in the subr_mcount.c source that it is broken for i386! Unpacking ksrc09 created /sys/usr.sbin with most of the bits for a new config in it, except config.c. Any ideas. I all else fails I'll try starting from scratch again. For now, we remain with a 4 pty kernel. Cheers Gavin
