Configuring a new kernel
------------------------

    1)	Change to the directory in which this README resides.

    2)	If you wish to change any of the System Tunable Parameters, edit master
	and dfile.net (for a network kernel) or dfile.w (for a non-network
	kernel). Remove the file current.net or current.w to force the creation
	of conf.c and config.h.

    3)	To build a network kernel type 'make net' or to make a non-network
	kernel type 'make wini'. The new kernel will be either ../unix.net
	or ../unix.w.

    4)	Copy the new kernel to root, being careful not to overwrite the existing
	kernel. Bring the system down and reboot. When the name '/unix' appears
	for the first time during reboot, type the full pathname of your new
	kernel. If everything is OK, the system will boot successfully. Now
	put the old kernel in a safe place (preferably in the root file system
	somewhere). It is recommended that you do not remove the original
	kernel. Move (or link) the new kernel to '/unix'. Finally remove the
	file '/etc/ps_data', and run 'ps'.
