The files for such modifications are in places like "/sys/h" or "/sys/conf/xenixconf". (I'm not exacly sure right now.) It is possible to recompile the kernel, infact it is necessary if you install new periferals which XENIX has to know about. Hope this helps you. Mark Galassi ...!tektronix!reed!rosalia
