https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=199054 Bug ID: 199054 Summary: freebsd-update should use /boot/kernel.old and not kernel.old1 Product: Base System Version: 9.3-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: misc Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: torsten.eichstaedt@web.de After 'freebsd-update' the old kernel saved in /boot/kernel.old1 and not /kernel.old, but kernel/old1 is not in the boot loader's menu by default. Thus one can't go back after an update in case something went wrong. Environment: FreeBSD paul-lifebook.local.lan 9.3-RELEASE-p10 FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE-p10 #0: Tue Feb 24 21:28:03 UTC 2015 root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 (I booted kernel.old after update) How-To-Repeat: have /boot/kernel.old and issue 'freebsd-update' Fix: Add this line to /boot/loader.conf: kernels="kernel kernel.old kernel.old1" -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
