How do I re-build the kernel under SunOS4.x?

	Here is the procedure.

	 1) cd /sys/`arch -k`/conf
	 2) Read the README.
	 3) Make a copy of the proper template file(ie cp GENERIC MYKERNEL)
	 4) Edit MYKERNEL  - Remove any unneeded drivers. These are memory
			     wasters. Also, probably want to increase
			     MAXUSERS to at least 50.
	 5) config MYKERNEL
	 6) cd ../MYKERNEL
	 7) make
	 8) cp /vmunix /vmunix.save
	 9) cp vmunix /vmunix
	10) Reboot machine to make the new kernel active.
