I have previously written about a mountroot prompt, here are some details. I have a system with an asus m3a78-emh hdmi board, a 74 gig raptor drive, and a dual core amd am2 cpu. I have had this result with both the amd64 and i386 systems. My steps were all conducted today as follows. install 7.0 release run freebsd-update get src tree build world build and install kernel reboot and be greeted by a mountroot prompt. It appears the drive numbering changed. /etc/fstab has the drive partitions with the number 5, the subsequent reboot got me a number 8. This is a test system not doing anything, so I can kick it any which way to test stuff. Brian Whalen
