Hi all,

I have *finally* made some significant progress towards upgrading to
1.5.10...  I built kernel, mm, and fs sucessfully.  I then went to
/usr/src/tools and built bootblok, build, init, and menu.  I ran 
build(8) to create a boot diskette on /dev/at0.  It printed out info
as it wrote each part to the disk.  Seemed fine 'til here.  The last
message it printed out was "build: mm click_shift does not match
kernel's."

What is this error indicative of?  I tried out the boot diskette and
it starts Minix fine, although I can't get past the menu without an
MM panic.  If I fix the build problem, should this fix the MM panic?

I tried selecting a RAM disk size that was the same as I used in V1.3.
(117K).  Any pointers on how to set things up from here (where to put
root FS, etc.) would be helpful.

I want to free up as much lo memory as possible, so I can compile the
big commands easily.  Eventually, I will install shoelace, too.

Thanks for any help,
