I can subsequently reboot off of kernel.old, as always). Since this is only a data box (running Samba), I'm not too worried, as I'll just reinstall...but I thought I'd throw it out there to see if there is a better approach to this particular upgrade (ie...incremental), as well as OP to get us both to STABLE. Note I also have a real production box at the following with the same issue, however, it's much more relied apon, so an upgrade as opposed to rebuild solution would be nice: FreeBSD pearl.ibctech.ca 4.11-STABLE FreeBSD 4.11-STABLE #4: Fri Jun 24 12:14:21 EDT 2005 steve@pearl.ibctech.ca:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/PEARL i386 Steve
