Hello,
We have a generic Alpha with an AlphaPC164 board running Tru64 4.0f.  I
noticed that there is no /genvunix or /vmunix on the top level!  Unless
I am greatly mistaken, I can't imagine this machine surviving a reboot
without one of these file.  The machine has an uptime of 150 days.  We
have a VERY small sysadmin staff here, and if anyone is going to do
anything to this small and lightly used machine it is going me.  I know
enough not to remove these files, at least not in the last 150 days.  I
recently ran the du_patch in test mode, and it didn't scream at me as
much as I would expect it to if it dosen't find a kernel.  
I realize there was a recent post from Dr Grabowski on the particulars
of restoring the /genvmunix file, but first I'd like to check on the
remote chance that it's SUPPOSED to be like this?  Should I be looking
for intrusion?  If I should just restore the files, what is the best way
to go about doing it?
