It looks like sccnattach() is calling scvidprobe() and scvidprobe()

to deal with rather then one config file. It makes managing bunches

He seems to have put a new style GENERIC file (thus one that has no
hints = port irq etc information for ISA stuff) through the perl script.
You might try the script on an old style GENERIC to get
GENERIC.hints is the corresponding hints file for what used to be
in GENERIC.

Ignore that last remark.
I did not note that you put in a GENERIC.hints in the tree. :)

I copied GENERIC and GENERIC.hints to MYKERNEL and MYKERNEL.hints
respective, and edit them to suit my system.
In MYKERNEL, I changed a line of hints to
hints "MYKERNEL.hints"
and because my fe0's irq is 6, I modified MYKERNEL.hints
hint.fe.0.irq="6"
Is this ok? I never used *.pl

I tried booting a kernel this morning, just to see Peter's new
"lean-n-mean" kernel config format in action, and I turned my
workstation into a headless server in the process. :-)
Most notably, these former entries were now missing from my dmesg
output when I logged in remotely and poked around:
I had a wierder problem yesterday... I followed the new changes to the
kernel config file, and included everything that belonged there, and yet

Yep! The Perl script generates no output and my kernel config file
matches the requirements perfectly. Though, if you'll read the

IMHO, the hints are a machine property, not a per-kernel property. Setting
up a /boot/device.hints is (IMHO) a one-time task that never needs to be
done more than once, and (again IMHO) the 'make install' had damn well
better not mess with.
But what if one does not exist? Wouldn't it be a
