Hi All, I have just been testing www.raqdevil.com which is coming along nicely :)
I decide to recompile the stock 6.0 kernel and strip out all the stuff I would not be using on my 'web appliance' (LPT, Serial, Firewire, USB) I think I have got my kernel down as small as I can (about 2.8 MB) however I have noticed at the end of dmesg.today there are some references to usb ? Is support being loaded from modules ? I have added usb_load="NO" to /boot/loader.conf - will this prevent the usb module being loaded. My kernel conf file is below. If there is anythig else I can remove to squeeze it down a bit more or if you have any other advice it would be great to hear it :) machine i386 makeoptions COPTFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -funroll-loops -ffast-math" cpu I686_CPU ident GENERIC options SCHED_ULE # ULE scheduler options PREEMPTION # Enable kernel thread preemption options INET # InterNETworking options INET6 # IPv6 communications protocols options FFS # Berkeley Fast Filesystem options SOFTUPDATES # Enable FFS soft updates support options UFS_ACL # Support for access control lists options UFS_DIRHASH # Improve performance on big directories options MD_ROOT # MD is a potential root device options PROCFS # Process filesystem (requires PSEUDOFS) options PSEUDOFS # Pseudo-filesystem framework options GEOM_GPT # GUID Partition Tables. options COMPAT_43 # Compatible with BSD 4.3 [KEEP THIS!] options COMPAT_FREEBSD4 # Compatible with FreeBSD4 options COMPAT_FREEBSD5 # Compatible with FreeBSD5 options SCSI_DELAY=5000 # Delay (in ms) before probing SCSI options KTRACE # ktrace(1) support options SYSVSHM # SYSV-style shared memory options SYSVMSG # SYSV-style message queues options SYSVSEM # SYSV-style semaphores options _KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING # POSIX P1003_1B real-time extensions options KBD_INSTALL_CDEV # install a CDEV entry in /dev options ADAPTIVE_GIANT # Giant mutex is adaptive. device apic # I/O APIC device isa device pci device fdc device ata device atadisk # ATA disk drives device ahc # AHA2940 and onboard AIC7xxx devices device scbus # SCSI bus (required for SCSI) device ch # SCSI media changers device sa # Sequential Access (tape etc) device pass # Passthrough device (direct SCSI access) device ses # SCSI Environmental Services (and SAF-TE) device atkbdc # AT keyboard controller device atkbd # AT keyboard device vga # VGA video card driver device sc # syscons is the default console driver device apm device pmtimer device miibus # MII bus support device vr # VIA Rhine, Rhine II device loop # Network loopback device random # Entropy device device ether # Ethernet support device tun # Packet tunnel. device pty # Pseudo-ttys (telnet etc) device md # Memory "disks" device gif # IPv6 and IPv4 tunneling device faith # IPv6-to-IPv4 relaying (translation) device bpf # Berkeley packet filter _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
