Hi,

I've got the XenoFreeBSD 5.3 binary and mdroot up on a Xen 2.0.3 machine (rather than current -testing), but I seem to be missing /dev/mem (and /dev/kmem). I'm noticing this when I try to do a netstat -nr, which gives me:

xenXXVIII# netstat -nr
netstat: kvm not available
Routing tables
rt_tables: symbol not in namelist

and ktrace reveals:

674 netstat  NAMI  "/dev/mem"
674 netstat  RET   open -1 errno 2 No such file or directory

There's no reference to the mem pseudo-device in the kernel startup messages, and I don't see that device in the XENCONF file in the source tarball for 5.3. So, should I recompile, adding mem, or do I just need to be on current -testing for it to work?

Other than this, all seems to be working well so far.

Cheers,
Chris.
