I am having some difficulty getting my kernel sources into a state
where I can rebuild the kernel. I installed the source distribution
as normal, and applied the official patches. Then I tried to install
the patches that came with the X distribution, but they didn't work -
some already seemed to be applied while others just failed. Does
anyone have any suggestions on this? Do you, for example, have to
apply the X patches to a completely clean kernel?
If I can get my kernel into a buildable state, and I get time over the
following few months I will be trying to add access control lists to
386BSD.
It's probably better if responses are by e-mail, or there will be a
lot of pointless traffic. Let me know if you want me to summarise to
the net.
Thanks,
