Sorry if this is a stupid question that I should have found the answer
to somewhere else. Pointers to useful documentation appreciated.
I'm running a 486dx266 w/ 16MB RAM and a bunch o' SCSI devices on a
BusTek ISA controller. Right now, I'm running a version of 1.0 that
is from a couple of weeks before the release (lost FTP access - I plan
to upgrade eventually, but I doubt that that is my problem).
I was trying to compile a kernel with DDB in it. So I added "options
DDB" to my config file, ran config, cd'd to the compile directory, and
did a "make clean," "make depend," and "make."
The kernel that I get won't load. It goes through the spinning "/"
(text, data, and bss), and then the machine resets. When I tried
loading the same kernel on my laptop, it did the same thing.
Just for kicks, I compiled the "BOAT_ANCHOR" config and it does the
same thing. I also tried using "config.new," but I don't have any
compatible config files - what do I have to do to get config.new
working?
Am I missing something (I must be...)? What do I need to do to run a
kernel with DDB in it?
Thanks,
-Todd.
