  <H2><A NAME="4"></A>4. Notes for building XFree86 on SVR4</H2>
<p>
<ol>
<li>If you are using gcc with SVR4, we highly recommend that you use
gcc-2.4.5 (or a later stable release).  Version 2.6.0 has some problems
on i386 platforms and is not recommended.
</li>
<li>It is recommended that you increase the <code>UFSNINODE</code> 
(for a UFS filesystem)
and/or the <code>S5NINODE</code> (for an S5 filesystem) kernel parameter 
to about 650
before attempting to build the distribution.  See the "Notes for running
XFree86 on SVR4" section for some other parameters you may want to
change.
</li>
<li>The <code>BOOTSTRAPCFLAGS</code> required are:
<blockquote>
For Unixware:     "<code>-DUSL</code>"

For NCR:          "<code>-DNCR</code>"

For other SVR4:   "<code>-DSVR4 -Di386</code>"
</blockquote>
</li>
</ol>
