Fix: The change information is being written out, in fact, but to the wrong location. move /kernel.config to /boot/kernel.conf (if it exists, otherwise there were no changes to save) and add the following lines to /boot/loader.rc: load /kernel load -t userconfig_script /boot/kernel.conf autoboot 5 This will cause the kernel change information to be read in and used properly (and you just learned a little about the new 3-stage loader in the process, so the exercise wasn't a total loss). --- snip --- Charles -----Original Message----- From: Bruce Grisham [mailto:bruce@accumatics.com] Sent: Friday, March 26, 1999 9:45 AM To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: In 3.1, can't seem to save device list after boot -cv After configuring devices I ask to save, but at next boot all devices are probed.
