The following reply was made to PR conf/2426; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Jordan K. Hubbard" <jkh@time.cdrom.com> To: uhclem@nemesis.lonestar.org (Frank Durda IV) Cc: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Subject: Re: conf/2426: At end of install, panic: Going nowhere without init - FDIV050 Date: Wed, 15 Jan 1997 23:18:06 -0800 > The newer/floppies/boot.flp successfully installed the minimal > 2.2-BETA tree (via a symlinked to 3.0-970114-SNAP on the local FTP > system), without producing this particular error message. The I found and fixed a number of sysinstall bogons after the SNAP went out, which is why I dumped (and will continue to dump) new versions of the boot floppies into the floppies/newer/ directory for awhile. I've got this handy chroot environment built up for rolling new boot floppy updates to 3.0-970114-SNAP, so I'm going to get some more testing mileage out of it before tearing it down and going back to 2.2-GAMMA testing. I'll probably roll at least one more set of boot floppies before I do that - I don't think I have all the outstanding PRs closed yet. If you can also test various failure conditions, like misspelled paths or bogus host names for FTP and NFS, that would be good - I tried to code more defensively for those cases in the last rev of the floppies.
