Like I said, I shouldn't have sent the above mail. Sorry. I had a world from the 8th septempber running. After updating to the 13th it broke for me. Using the older loader did not help. Removing all 4th files and references work - beside that I had to set device.hints in loader.rc. With the kernel source from yesterday (World still from 13th) the kernel now gets installed as /boot/kernel/kernel instead of kernel.ko and the loader paniced similar because it was not able to load the kernel! I thought that we might have a similar unavailable file reference now with the 4th files. -- B.Walter COSMO-Project http://www.cosmo-project.de ticso@cicely.de Usergroup info@cosmo-project.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
