Such kernels > should load just fine. Hi, I was doing an upgrade from 12.2-R to HEAD today, and at the end of installkernel I got the warning “kldxref: too many segments”. Still, the system seems to claim that installkernel succeded. I believe the message is caused by the fact that the system kldxref is used to kldxref the new kernel, rather than using the one from buildworld (I got this idea by looking at KLDXREF_CMD in sys/conf/kern.opts.mk). I don’t know if the message is innocuous or not (although I’d love to know), but I also wonder whether installkernel should pick the buildworld kldxref rather than the installed one. Thanks, Matteo
