I just recently installed 4.0B on an Alpha 3800.  I'm trying to run the
"monitor" program but keep getting the following error:
monitor: read_kernel: Can't read from /dev/kmem: No such device or address.
I'm running this as root, so there should not be a permission issue.
ls -l /dev/k*
crw-------   1 root     system    31,  0 Mar  5 12:57 /dev/kbinlog
crw-------   1 root     system     3,  1 Feb 26 11:03 /dev/kcon
crw-rw----   1 root     system    25,  1 Feb 26 11:03 /dev/keyboard0
crw-------   1 root     system     3,  0 Feb 26 11:03 /dev/klog
cr--r-----   1 root     mem        2,  1 Mar  6 07:57 /dev/kmem
If this was just a permission issue I would expect the message to read:
monitor: live: Can't open /dev/kmem: Permission denied.
I removed /dev/kmem and remade the device with /dev/MAKEDEV kmem
I still have the same problem.  This isn't a 4.0B problem because the
monitor program is running on another Alpha with the same OS.
TIA
