Using FreeBSD 4.0 current for quite some time
and staying current with cvsup work fine for me a few months.

But today shit hits the fan, after a make world my system won't boot without
errors and manual interference..
---------------- last part of dmesg after boot -v --------- :
changing root device to da0s1a
da0 at ncr0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
da0: <SEAGATE ST34371W SUN4.2G 7462> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device
da0: Serial Number JDW582790LFGXG
da0: 40.000MB/s transfers (20.000MHz, offset 15, 16bit), Tagged Queueing
Enabled
da0: 4094MB (8385121 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 521C)
da0s1: type 0xa5, start 0, end = 8385120, size 8385121
da0s1: C/H/S end 521/242/10 (1268459) != end 8385120: invalid
start_init: trying /sbin/init
file: table is full
file: table is full
file: table is full
file: table is full
------------------------------------------------------------

The console reports instead of the file: lines:

.: out of file descriptors
Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh:

I can let it go to multiuser when i do the following:

exec /etc/rc

and type CTRL-C/D a couple of times, letting it skip the first processes it
start.


I don't know where to look, the msgs assume there is something wrong with
the disk/filesystems
(da0s1: C/H/S end 521/242/10 (1268459) != end 8385120: invalid )

But i can fsck and mount them all without errors... There are no full
filesystems:

zappa# df -k
Filesystem  1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/da0s1a     99183    22952    68297    25%    /
/dev/da0s1h   1205119   502981   605729    45%    /dump
/dev/da0s1e   1016303   791947   143052    85%    /usr
/dev/da0s1f    744175   256046   428595    37%    /usr/src
/dev/da0s1g    744175     6214   678427     1%    /var
procfs              4        4        0   100%    /proc

After the manual multi-user mode I can even do a new make world and make
kernel but it doesn't change anything.

Something in the early /sbin/init part goes wrong, can anyone describe the
boot process in this stage?


Regards,
Ron.
