(well thought it was code 2) Mike Smith and I have talked about it and couldn't immediately think of which commit could have broken the loader. At the loader 10 sec count down, do: unload load kernel.old boot This works for me. Seems unloading and reloading a kernel "fixes" the problem. Sometimes I am even able to load "kernel" after the unload and have it boot. -- -- David (obrien@NUXI.com) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
