Hello,

I recently installed FreeBSD1.0EPSILON on one of our PCs at the university.
The target computer was a DELL466/M 16Mo, 500Mo IDE + SMC WD8013EPC.

Everything runs welll, except the warm reboot (prb with WD8013 identified as WD8003)

Anyway, my machine is a full ISA/IDE one. The default kernel used by the installation
use the GENRICAHA configuration. So I decided to recompile a new kernel which
will better match my hardware config. The problem is that the FreeBSD kernel
source distribution does not content the GENERICISA file. 

Where could I get one ?

I've some other questions:
 
* I have a 486, what's should I put in the config file for the cpu ?
   I put cpu "i486" and remove the MATH_EMULATE option. Everything 
   compiled well, but the ps -aux caused Floating Point Execption !!

* Do we have some kernfs implementation with FreeBSD (as for NetBSD) ?


Thanks.
