Chuck: Typo on my part. In the posting AFIK. I tried it a few times, though not to say I didn't type it wrong each time. It's late now and that machine is currently off, so will have to wait till much later, like late tomorrow. I can't copy/paste from the FreeBSD machine to this one, and I have no idea how to copy paste from the command line/terminal screen, to a floppy (or anything else!) but the error was very short, but almost literaly "dont know how to build PPSGENERIC" No other details were shown. Michael: As to 'cd /usr/src' before issuing the make command, yes, of course I did that, but you are right to to ask. Nite nite.
