HELP!" :) Actually, it says "changing", but the 'c' gets printed and then all of the interrupt context stuff happens for the outstanding SCSI probes, so all that's left to print at the end is 'hanging...' I'm not sure why it happens like this; try putting a DELAY() just before we actually set the root device and see if you can put it off. -- \\ The mind's the standard \\ Mike Smith \\ of the man. \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ -- Joseph Merrick \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
