I'm attempting to customize the kernel and have amazing success.  I am 
having a couple of problems though and need some advise: 

1)  Are any of the COMPAT_ options REQUIRED?  And are they recommended? 
    One problem I have noticed is that when you remove COMPAT_43, the system 
    doesn't let you login as ROOT!?!? 

2)  It appears that INET is required, is this true?  I really don't need 
    any networking capability and would like to free up some more 
    memory.  (Don't got much to begin with...B-))

    I have tried removing it (and the pdev LOOP) and received several 
    errors.  The system still ran but SYSLOGD wouldn't run and I was 
    receiving messages stating something about the last message being 
    repeated NNNN times, where NNNN varied.

3)  Do the "commands" need to be recompiled if the kernel changes, like 
    removing the COMPAT_09 define?

4)  Are all of the defines documented somewhere or should I consider this 
    a worthwhile task?

Also I sent some source changes that corrects the setting of the A3000 
clock to the netbsd-bugs list, but I wasn't sure if that was the correct 
thing to do.  If anyone wants the diffs, I'll provide 'em.

By the way, thanks for NetBSD.  I finally get to see what "Unix" is all 
about.  (Now I just gotta get more mem, disk, 68060, ...)
