The FAQ said just recompile and that Chris Demetriou tells me there is now another "FAQ" on agate, 386BSD.BUGLIST. This covers pretty much everything not covered in Terry's FAQ - including, if it's not covered, how to set permissions for tip. One point that may not be covered is serial (com) port naming. After applying Terry's patchkit, what used to be com1 is now called com0 and what used to be com2 is now com1. This should be reflected in the /sys/i386/conf/SYSTEM-NAME config file, as well as in /etc/ttys, /etc/remote and Xconfig (if you run X). And don't forget to create /dev/com0. Here are the permissions on my system: crw-rw-r-- 1 uucp wheel 8, 0 Dec 21 22:14 /dev/com0 crw-rw-r-- 1 uucp wheel 8, 1 Nov 7 04:15 /dev/com1 crw-rw-r-- 1 uucp wheel 8, 2 Jul 5 21:35 /dev/com2 drwxr-xr-x 2 uucp wheel 512 Dec 21 22:18 /var/spool/lock -rw-r--r-- 1 uucp wheel 58941 Dec 21 22:18 /var/log/aculog -Andrew Moore <alm@netcom.com>
