I upgraded from 5.4 to 5.5 (via make buildworld, etc) and now the kernel boot hangs in exactly the same place that it did for you. FYI, I'm booting off a SCSI drive, I have one IDE device -- a CDROM configured as the master on the secondary channel and I have two SATA drives. The weird thing is it booted the first time and will _very_ occasionally boot but most of the time it hangs. I've tried removing the CDROM drive, disabling IDE altogether but nothing seems to help. I've also been able to boot 6.2 from the CD but I have not tried upgrading to it yet and I'd prefer not to at this point. Have you resolved this issue and if so, how? -- Paul Keusemann pkeusem@visi.com 4266 Joppa Court (952) 894-7805 Savage, MN 55378
