Cross" Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG The latest snapshots off of releng4.freebsd.org have a couple of problems with the kern.flp/mfsroot.flp images. The first problem is that the "boot.config" file doesn't exist; this makes serial console installs problematic (although easily fixed). Secondly the 20000913 image has the problem that the mfsminiroot is wacked somehow. The system refuses to mount the md0a partition as the slice size and mediasize are not the same (well, it mounts it, tries to run init which signal 6's, and then the system panic()s). -- David Cross | email: crossd@cs.rpi.edu Lab Director | Rm: 308 Lally Hall Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, | Ph: 518.276.2860 Department of Computer Science | Fax: 518.276.4033 I speak only for myself. | WinNT:Linux::Linux:FreeBSD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
