Unusual, also can't find anything similar at the Marc archives. This is a new build, halfway through. I've built current sources, built and installed new kernel. Now I cannot go into single to install new sources. No problems at all, running multi-. Just can't get into single. Tried 'boot -s' at initial choice, also tried 'boot_single="YES"' in /boot/loader.conf. No luck. Last build, about 10 days ago, allowed me to get into single to install sources but both that build and this one would display no boot details. Just this: /boot/kernel/kernel text=0x1b1da4 data=0x3828c+0x52d68 \(sameline) syms=[0x4+0x30b10+0x4+0x3b481] | (<-this doesn't revolve) then into the login prompt. This is /boot/loader.conf that I tried: boot_single="YES" boot_verbose="YES" Even though I get no details at boot, dmesg works just fine and is up-to-date. $ uname -a ( <-- formatted for mail) FreeBSD trittico.fiddi.com 5.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT #0: Fri Dec 21 16:20:39 PST 2001 root@trittico.fiddi.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/TRITTICO i386 So where do I explore? I've read manpages, searched google/bsd, the faq & handbook, of course. Should I look into what I might have config'd into my kernel? Maybe I should try to boot GENERIC? (Yeah I'll try that, but I still want to run my kernel with the options that I've added.) Any hints on what to explore would be very appreciated.
