A/UX: How to Build a Kernel Without Networking


How do you build a kernel without networking?

To build a kernel using the Autoconfig command:

1) Log on to the system as "root".

2) Enter the command: /etc/newunix nonet

3) Enter the command: autoconfig

The output of the Autoconfig command might look similar to this:

Warning cannot find driver(s) for device ID 5 Version 7.0 Ignore the
message: 'ld warning: file /tmp/kernAAAa02712 has no relocation info' if it
appears. ld warning: file /tmp/kernAAAa02712 has no relocation information

Module Board Prefix Major Flags
====== ===== ====== ===== =====
0: scc 0 init-??? present char
1: scsi 24 init-??? present block
2: tty init-??? present
3: streams init-??? present
4: slots slots init-normal included lib
5: toolbox ui_ 4 init-normal included char fork ex

The last few lines of information sorted by columns describe the modules
currently included in the kernel. You should not see any lines in the
output that contain "nfs", "bnet", or "ae6".

Note: To make use of the new kernel, you must reboot the system.
