I created a loader.rc and the kernel (used from /boot/kernel) and I created an mfsroot from the mfsroot.flp which can be downloaded from freebsd.org. The kernel is loaded, then mfsroot is loaded. my loader.rc echo Loading mfsroot... load -t mfs_root /mfsroot echo booting... echo \007\007 echo initializing h0h0magic... set boot_userconfig set vfs.root.mountfrom="ufs:/dev/md0c" boot after mfsroot has been loaded is see: initializing h0h0magic... then a loud BEEP and then it stops and the system reboots..... What am i doing wrong? Any hints what to do now? Bye, Mipam.
