The following reply was made to PR i386/37451; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Dan Naumov <dan_naumov@yahoo.com> To: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org, bug-followup@FreeBSD.org Cc: roam@ringlet.net Subject: Re: i386/37451: top, vmstat and systat refuse to work. Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2002 05:53:52 -0700 (PDT) I looked closer at the boot process and noticed that right before boot2 presents me with an ability to load the kernel, I get a "No /boot/loader" error. When I type "boot" at the boot2 promt and it starts loading the kernel, there is also a "loader(8) metadata missing !" error. However when I cd to /boot, I see loader.conf, loader itself, and other related files. What could possibly be wrong and how can I make the system use loader to boot the kernel ? Originally, /boot/loader was not set to be executable (what would it matter that early in the booting process though), so I went and chmodded it to 755, didn't help. ls -la from /boot: ================================================================ drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Apr 24 21:40 . drwxr-xr-x 20 root wheel 512 Apr 24 21:41 .. -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 512 Apr 24 21:40 boot0 -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 512 Apr 24 21:40 boot1 -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 7680 Apr 24 21:40 boot2 -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1136 Apr 24 21:40 cdboot drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Apr 21 20:49 defaults -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 155648 Apr 24 21:40 loader -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 9237 Jan 28 15:12 loader.4th -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 67 Apr 21 00:03 loader.conf -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 12012 Jan 28 15:12 loader.help -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 159744 Apr 21 20:49 loader.old -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 338 Jan 28 15:12 loader.rc -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 512 Apr 24 21:40 mbr -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 157696 Apr 24 21:40 pxeboot -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 25121 Jan 28 15:12 support.4th ================================================================ also, dmesg -a output: ================================================================ Copyright (c) 1992-2002 The FreeBSD Project.
