I am trying to use the repair floppy generated by the script in section 9.3.8 of the handbook. I created the mini kernel included in the script as well. I am running 2.2.7 on a Dell 486P/25 with 16mb of RAM. Here is what happens when I boot off of the floppy: Boot: 0:fd(0,a)kernel -s . . . stuff deleted . . Changing root device to fd0s4c Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh: [return] PID 5 PID 5 (sh), UID 0: exited on signal 8 Sep 6 09:11:33 init: single user shell terminated, restarting Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh: When I boot in multi user mode I get a slightly different error. . . . stuff deleted . . Sep 6 010:19:36 init: login get_class: unknown class `daemon` Sep 6 010:19:48 init: init /bin/sh on /etc/rc terminated abnormally, going to single user mode Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh: [return] PID 5 PID 5 (sh), UID 0: exited on 8 Sep 6 09:30:10 init: single user shell terminated, restarting Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh: [return] PID 5 PID 6 (sh), UID 0: exited on 8 If I boot off the hard disk and mount the floppy I can execute the shell [/mnt/bin/sh] successfully. If I install the mini kernal on my hard disk and boot it I get the same errors as above. Here is the kernel config I am using: # MINI -- A kernel to get FreeBSD on onto a disk. # machine "i386" cpu "I486_CPU" ident MINIB maxusers 5 options INET # needed for _tcp _icmpstat _ipstat # _udpstat _tcpstat _udb options FFS #Berkeley Fast File System options FAT_CURSOR #block cursor in syscons or pccons options SCSI_DELAY=15 #Be pessimistic about Joe SCSI device options NCONS=2 #1 virtual consoles options USERCONFIG #Allow user configuration with -c XXX config kernel root on sd0 swap on sd0 and sd1 dumps on sd0 controller isa0 controller pci0 controller fdc0 at isa? port "IO_FD1" bio irq 6 drq 2 vector fdintr disk fd0 at fdc0 drive 0 disk fd1 at fdc0 drive 1 tape ft0 at fdc0 drive 2 options ATAPI #Enable ATAPI support options ATAPI_STATIC #Don't do it as a LM device wfd0 #IDE floppy (LS120) device wft0 #IDE tape drive controller ncr0 controller scbus0 device sc0 at isa? port "IO_KBD" tty irq 1 vector scintr device npx0 at isa? port "IO_NPX" irq 13 vector npxintr device sd0 device sd1 device sd2 device st0 pseudo-device loop # required by INET pseudo-device gzip # Exec gzipped a.out's #End kernel config Any help much appreciated.
