Problem with math-co emulation in kernel ... I've tried enabling either GPL_MATH_EMULATE and the regular MATH_EMULATE and each time I make the kernel, I get the following error: kern_sysctl.o: Undefined symbol '_hw_float' referenced from text segment I've 'grep'ped through all the source code I can find. I installed the kernel source code and plenty of other source code (although not all the GNU code -- although that shouldn't cause a problem with using just the "MATH_EMULATE" code included in the release). I've messed with Linux, SCO, and SunOS/Solaris, but I'm quite new to BSD (I came from Linux because Adaptec doesn't support it). PLEASE HELP ME!!! -- Bryan J.
