I was installing 5.0DP2 onto a 2100 last night, I completed the install, BSD warned me that if I leave sysinstall that the system will halt, typical so far, then my server re-booted, I ended up at the P00>>> prompt, then I typed in 'boot', BSD started to load, then I was greeted with the "boot" prompt. I typed in boot again, and things went along fine. There were no errors, messages, warnings, etc. saying that there was a problem, everyting looked normal. I first noticed this problem on my AS4000 machine when 5.0DP1 was out, but since the release of 5.0DP2, that machine is running like a champ. So, I decided to load a 5305 that I have here with 5.0DP2, and the same thing happened as on the 2100! Except only this time, when I typed in 'boot' and enter, it wouldn't boot, it couldn't find the kernel for some reason. I don't have console output for this problem, my laptop died on me, I am in the process of getting consoles on these machines in case someone should need it. But this sounds like a procedural problem on my part. Anyone have any ideas? AJ Schroeder To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
