One more thing: With a 9.0-RELEASE world installed, if I boot the old 8.2-RELEASE kernel (/boot/kernel.old/kernel), mount /dev/acd0 and checksum the files with sha256, everything is okay. If I boot again the new 9.0-RELEASE kernel (/boot/kernel/kernel), mount /dev/cd0 and checksum the files with sha256, I get the wrong results above. Since there's no /dev/acd0 on 9.0-RELEASE, I can't test mounting that on 9 and compare the results with /dev/cd0. But obviously, whatever /dev/cd0 returns to cd9660 seems to be silently corrupted on 9.0; at least on sparc64. -cpghost. -- Cordula's Web. http://www.cordula.ws/
