    the kernel boot source was patched more than once.

    remove the old kernel source tree, and reinstall a fresh one.

    Don&#39;t run the build script again.

    Look at the build scipt, just reinstall the kernel source.

    I cannot get boa to execute a cgi from POST that works just fine with GET. How did you fix your problem?

    i&#39;m still noob but i&#39;ll juz try to help. i suppose POST n GET both works, but u nit diff method of reading in the cgi inputs. POST sent the parameters in the environment variable, QUERY_STRING while get sent thru stdin.

    try putting ur executable files in the same folder with ur html files in /httpd instead of httpd/cgi-bin. (seems stupid but i think i failed to get it to run in diff folder... cant remember)

    search for ScriptAlias in boa.conf. i suppose u can set it to any folder whr u store ur executables. the format of the line is in the file as well.

    gd luck.

    ps. anyone correct me if i&#39;m wrong.
