Re: can't get alt0 driver when doing a kernel rebuild on genvmunix
Looks like your genvmunix is not good.
Idea:
Copy original kernel configuration file somewhere. Then boot genvmunix and build the new kernel which has kzpba inside. Copy new kernel configuration file somewhere.
Now look for differences. Find the line that consists option for kzpba (do not remember but something like "# Static Driver Definitions
...
config_driver isp).
Then manualy put that line to your original kernel file and rebuild the kernel using that file.

Re: can't get alt0 driver when doing a kernel rebuild on genvmunix
Go to /usr/sys/conf.
Edit configuration file (ussualy your host name in capital letters), find section "# Static Driver Definitions# and insert line:
config_driver alt
Not sure it is the right sintax, but you will find it in backup configuration file.
Regards

Re: can't get alt0 driver when doing a kernel rebuild on genvmunix
pseudo-device alt
If I do a 'strings /vmunix | grep alt' I get lots of alt interface related lines (below), the same thing on my new kernel has no alt interface related strings.
Something in the kernel build is ignoring the "pseudo-device alt" directive...I think.

Re: can't get alt0 driver when doing a kernel rebuild on genvmunix
Two step:
a) boot genvmunix, create NEW configuration file and system name:
#doconfig -c NEWname
b) boot with_alt0_old_working_kernel
compare config files and find new controller and driver decriptions,
copy-paste from NEWname to current config,
rebuild kernel and reboot
