I just installed 4.5-Release and rebuilt my custom kernel. When checking dmesg and /var/log messages I noticed the errors (see at bottom of message): I noticed that /boot/kernel.conf had the following entries: psm0 sn0 lnc0 ie0 e0 ed0 cs0 bt0 aic0 aha0 adv0 q These devices do not exist on my system so I deleted the entries from kernel.conf and now the system boots up fine with no errors. I may have added these entries by accident during the install when I "deleted" the conflicting devices from the Kernel Configuration. What is the purpose of /boot/kernel.conf and should the file be empty or even exist? Thanks, - Scott ___________ Feb 2 16:15:40 blue /kernel: real memory = 671072256 (655344K bytes) Feb 2 16:15:40 blue /kernel: config> di psm0 Feb 2 16:15:40 blue /kernel: config> di sn0 Feb 2 16:15:40 blue /kernel: No such device: sn0 Feb 2 16:15:40 blue /kernel: Invalid command or syntax.
