Hi All,

Stupid question, maybe, but I am clueless...

How do I rebuild the kernel with 386bsd?  I know how to use the config
program, but the needed configure files seem to be missing from the
binary distribution.  Where should I 'cd' to and what file do I use
for the FILE_SYSTEM in 'config FILE_SYSTEM'?

Do I need to get the etc01.* distribution for these files?  

Any help you can offer will be greatly appreciated.  If possible, please
reply email as I am desparate for a reply and this machine unbatches
news about every other day.
