I always found that people waste my time when they write explanations and tons of bla bla that does not have to do with the issue itself, instead of just writing about what the problem really is. Because of the permanent repeating of "USE THE GENERIC KERNEL" instead of answering any questions that have to do with my problem: Total available disk space on the target system: 32MB The GENERIC Kernel of OpenBSD 5.0 is >8MB. I really do a lot to save every bit I can. I delete all programs that are not constantly needed from disk and compress seldom used programs and have wrappers that unzip these compressed in case they are needed. And so on. I don't want to bore you with details, but just take this: I need it and ... > I probably have a lesser machine in production. I'd go for that bet! And pppppllllllleeeeeeaaaaasssseee don't come up now with "use different hardware"!!! There are hundreds of things to think about when it comes to the hardware you'd be using for a certain purpose. And please don't make me explain why exactly this hardware is needed for this purpose. I've got all that running perfectly since OpenBSD 3.5. I've used custom kernels with success ever since, but with always spending a lot of time fiddling with which driver to use and which to get rid of. Now I'd like to find a more convenient way to generally solve this issue. If you guys say that there is no convenient way of solving this problem but to really dig into this and completely understand the architecture - then I still believe that I'll find a working config by fiddling around and trying this and that until I succeed. I just hoped I'd get a hint how to ease this process. T.
