Hi there I asked this in freebsd-questions and somebody answered me a little upset saying that the issue i discusse bellow is old subject here... but i searched stable, bugs and questions mailing lists through www.freebsd.org before i sent my question to questions and didn't find any references.. even the GNATS.. so here it is: I'm using 2.2.5-STABLE with a kernel recompiled until the F00F bug from the stable source tree. I received days ago the report about the VM bug in the kernel, so i pulled the latest src/sys tree with cvsup and then made the steps for kernel recompiling with the same configuration file than before. I installed it and rebooted but when the server tried to mount the root device, mount complained: /dev/sd0d on /:Specified device does not match mounted device. Filesystem mount failed, startup aborted Then it asked for the path shell or RETURN for sh.... well you notice some weirdeness about my root device :) well... i made a mistake defining the partition for the root device and i notice that late, while changing the system to a SCSI disk from an IDE. What i did to boot without typing (sd0,d)kernel everytime from the boot: prompt was to change src/sys/boot/biosboot/boot.c and made 'd' the default bootable partition... i don't think this has something to do with my problem since it boots fine (kernel.old still works) and the new kernel boots all the way until it tries to mount / Now.. when I enter the shell and type mount it shows me this: root_device on / (local,read-only) Well.. then i recompiled src/sbin/mount and installed it.. but the problem didn't fixed Any ideas???? Mmmm. maybe i have to rewrite the boot code on the disk?????
