--00000000000093f5b405cabcbba7 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" I am upgrading a -CURRENT box from a build that's exactly 2 weeks old to one I built about 2 hours ago. After installkernel I updated the bootloader the same way I normally do: # mount_msdosfs /dev/da8p1 /mnt # cp /mnt/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.efi /mnt/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.bak # cp loader_lua.efi /mnt/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.efi # umount /mnt After rebooting, however, the kernel hangs right after: real memory = 137438953472 (131072 MB) avail memory = 133651951616 (127460 MB) ACPI APIC Table: <LENOVO SV-INT > It never makes it to this line: FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor System Detected: 32 CPUs FreeBSD/SMP: 2 package(s) x 8 core(s) x 2 hardware threads So I rebooted a selected kernel.old at the boot menu and.. same thing. That's strange! So I booted off a USB stick, mounted the EFI partition and copied BOOTX64.bak back to BOOTX64.efi and now the machine booted normally. So for some reason the newer loader_lua.efi is causing both the new kernel AND the old kernel to hang, but the older loader_lua.efi seems to work with both no problem. Any ideas? Thanks! -Dustin --00000000000093f5b405cabcbba7--
