Thanks, I checked this and there are no 0x00s in the config file itself, but a hd to /boot/kernel/kernel reveals: 09 66 77 69 70 0a 64 65 76 69 63 65 09 64 63 6f |.fwip.device.dco| 6e 73 0a 64 65 76 69 63 65 09 64 63 6f 6e 73 5f |ns.device.dcons_| 63 72 6f 6d 0a 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |crom............| 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 |................| This also explains why a recent config-binary worked against the old kernel... The were some commits to /src/usr.sbin/config/* in the last weeks, maybe one of them broke this. Kind Regards -- Michael Moll
