Booting [kernel]... /kernel text=0x11c83e - elf_loadexec: archsw.readinh failed canīt load 'kernel' Any idea? how can the error occur even before it starts loading the kernel? I tried several kernel ,some built on the machine, som on others, kernel.GENERIC always works. one of the kernels I trieds I only changed the name in the kernel, so that cant be it? I also tried remaking and installing the bootloader (/sys/boot) no luck. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /\/\orten $eeberg, Systems Consultant @ Merkantildata - Enterprise Solutions #echo 'System Administrators suck :)' > /dev/console To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
