CHAPTER 8 Kernel Configuration
8.5 Ultrix
Ultrix is similar to SunOS 4.1.X when building a kernel. The steps to follow on a MIPS hardware platform are:
- 1. cd /sys/conf
- cp GENERIC HOSTNAME - copy the configuration file
- vi HOSTNAME - edit and revise as needed
- config HOSTNAME - build the system configuration files
- cd /sys/MIPS/HOSTNAME - change to the new configuration directory
- make - compile the new kernel
- mv /vmunix /genvmunix - save the old kernel
- cp vmunix / - install the new kernel
- reboot - reboot using the new kernel
