If you could send me the resulting /boot/loader.rc, /boot/loader.conf and /boot/kernel.conf, just so I can rest assured everything is being installed as expected, I'd be even more grateful. > How does installing the latest stable over an existing stable sound? One > that the changes made to it as detailed in the errata.txt for 3.1-release? If done through make world, nothing changes in this regard. Anyway, make world doesn't run kget, or even changes the kernel. :-) If done through install disk/sysinstall, I expect a newer /boot/loader.rc to be installed, as well as all the rest of the required infrastructure. Of course, I'd prefer to be sure than confident. :-) > At any rate, I will let the others ops on undernet #freebsd know to > contact me if anyone else reports the problem.

Feel free to contact me in following up on any problem related to bootstrapping in general. -- Daniel C.
