Hi guys,

on my NetBSD 1.6.2 machine, uname -a gives,

when I'm me:

su% uname -a
NetBSD su 1.6.2 NetBSD 1.6.2 (GENERIC) #0: Tue Sep 28 11:04:09 EST 2004
root@su:/opt/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC i386

when I'm root:

su# uname -a
Linux su 2.4.18 #0 Wed Feb 20 20:00:02 CET 2002 i386 unknown

does anyone have an idea why it thinks it's linux when root?

thanks,
Paul.
