When I was a new, some members gave me advices "how to",
sorry I don't remember it clearly. Please teach me it again.
It was 2 points;

1) in /etc/mk.conf, add one line;
MKSOFTFLOAT=yes

2) in My kernel config file, add one line;
options       COPTS+=-msoft-float -02 -68030

I'm not sure about 2) "COPTS+".
1) Is this correct?
2) Where should I put it? In My kernel conf or in mk.conf?
3) Is it required not only building a kernel but also release?
4) Is it also work(required) for making packages?

If "YES" to 3) or 4), it should be put in mk.conf, ...?

Yes, I think so. I got a cheap P.III box for Cross Compiling.
It's about 50 times faster than my fastest Quadra. It's very
useful especially for making a mac68k test kernel.

Thanks a lot,
