The great thing about posting to the list is that you find your errors right away. :) Back in the day when the kernel building system was more insane and installed new kernels as $KERNELNAME I had changed my /boot/loader.conf to load the right kernel. It turns out that this machine hadn't been rebuilt since those days, so...when friday's kernel was installed as /kernel the machine kept booting off of /TUNGSTEN and I didn't even notice. On top of that kernel.GENERIC was so old that it didn't work either. I guess I should remember to build a new generic kernel when crossing releases. :) Sorry for the waste of bandwidth. -Brandon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
