I presume yes, because it's the generic kernel for netbsd 1.4.1

I tried to compile my own kernel. I have installed netbsd files with the
install for openbsd. So I can use my PIV. But I can't compile the kernel
because I can't mount my partition in read/write mode.


What is your config?


It seems that we are the only 3 guys with this problem. Others leave for
Linux?

Ciao!
