I get stuck in the mountroot> prompt: >Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/ad6s3a > >ROOT MOUNT ERROR: >If you have invalid mount options, reboot, and first try the following from >the loader prompt: > > set vfs.root.mountfrom.options=rw > >and the remove invalid mount options from /etc/fstab. > >Loader variables: >vfs.root.mountfrom=ufs:/dev/ad6s3a >vfs.root.mountform.options=rw > >[manual boot prompt] >mountroot> ? I have only modified machdep.c according to http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2009-August/010778.html by adding an entry for MacBook4,1 to cpu_startup(). I am able to boots this same laptop with 7-STABLE. Can someone please help? thanks.
