https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D221550 --- Comment #1 from Kurt Lidl <lidl@FreeBSD.org> --- It's probably obvious, but I'll post a workaround here too - since the edgerouter pretty much always boots the same kernel file... Most people setup the boot command to do something like this: boot_freebsd=3Dfatload usb 0 $loadaddr kernel/kernel ; bootoctlinux $loadad= dr coremask=3D0x3 And then they have the msdos filesystem holding the kernel mounted as /boot: The right thing for kern.bootfile ought to be set to /boot/kernel/kernel, so just do the following: echo 'kern.bootfile=3D/boot/kernel/kernel' >> /etc/sysctl.conf sysctl kern.bootfile=3D/boot/kernel/kernel And then 'make installkernel' will do the right thing... --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
