- In addition, depending on how much the kernel itself has changed, you
- may need to recompile ps, free, etc. THIS WAS THE CASE FOR ME WHEN
- UPGRADING FROM 0.99.0 to 0.99.1. Recompile and install the new ps,
- free, etc. (no changes needed to the ps code, although fstat has to
- be patched). Then run ps -U /usr/src/linux/tools/system [/dev/swappart1 [ /dev
- swappart2 ] [...]]] to create your new /etc/psdatabase.
