FreeBSD 4.6-RELEASE

 

Recompile the kernel

 

Create /etc/make.conf:

 

CPUTYPE=i686

CFLAGS=-O2 –pipe

NOPROFILE=true

USA_RESIDENT=YES

 

Check your UMASK, it should be 022, just type ‘umask’

 

Create a template config file by just copying the generic kernel config file.

 

Cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf

Cp GENERIC PIMPIN46

 

Edit PIMPIN46 to remove all devices you are not going to use

Copy the bottom part of your old kernel to get all the added options and devices

Be sure to check the advanced power options, in order to enable apm

 

Compile the kernel like this:

 

Config PIMPIN46

Cd ../../compile/PIMPIN46

Make depend; make

Make install

 

Reboot

Remove /kernel.old and /modules.old – they just take up space

Remove your compile directory: rm –R /usr/src/sys/compile/PIMPIN46
