Situation: One of my boxes failed, and for various reasons it became easier to just scrub and rebuild it. Like its predecessor it will run CURRENT 1) Using BSDinstall, I flushed then created the first disk: ada2p1 freebsd-boot 128k ada2p2 freebsd-swap 4g ada2p3 freebsd-ufs 25g (There are non-bootable disks at ada0, -1, and -3.) 2) Installed off the 9.0 CD, got it up and running, everything was good. 3) Used csup (tag=.) to update the source tree as of 00:01 on 12/30. 4a) Built world - OK. 4b) Build kernel - OK. 4c) Ran mergemaster - OK. 4d) Installed kernel - OK. 5) On rebooting, the loader(??) claims to not be able to find a bootable partition - i.e. I get a screen that ends in "mountroot > ". Providing the presumptive value by hand returns "error 19". 6) Boot using installation CD and use "gpart show" to double check device names and partitions; everything looks good. 7) Try normal booting again, no go. This is my first time installing to a completely GPT partitioned system, and I have (obviously) failed to grok something. I checked src/UPDATING and found nothing which covered this. What have I bungled, and how do I fix it? Respectfully, Robert Huff
