Ummm, things are strange. I downloaded the bin directory for 3.1-19990429- STABLE and installed via FTP from another box. There is no loader.conf or kernel.conf. This machine previously had 3.1-19990318-STABLE as noted in the uname -a below. Here's what I got. $ uname -a FreeBSD daisy.nz.freebsd.org 3.1-19990318-STABLE FreeBSD 3.1-19990318- STABLE #0: Fri Mar 19 01:18:10 GMT 1999 jkh@usw3.freebsd.org:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC i386 $ cd /boot $ ls -lt total 191 drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 May 1 08:36 defaults -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 11462 Apr 30 16:49 loader.help -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 23639 Apr 30 16:49 support.4th -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 171 Apr 30 16:49 loader.rc -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 131072 Apr 30 16:49 loader -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 5181 Apr 30 16:49 loader.4th -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 7680 Apr 30 16:49 boot2 -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 512 Apr 30 16:49 boot1 -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 512 Apr 30 16:49 boot0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 139 Apr 24 12:07 kernel.config $ $ cat loader.rc \ Loader.rc \ \ Includes additional commands include /boot/loader.4th \ Reads and processes loader.rc start \ Unless set otherwise, autoboot is automatic at this point $ cat kernel.config di psm0 di zp0 di ze0 di lnc0 di le0 di ie0 di fe0 di ex0 di ep0 di cs0 di wt0 di wdc1 di scd0 di mcd0 di matcdc0 di bt0 di aha0 di adv0 q $ > 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.

FWIW, I was speaking with Jordan on irc. He figured I'^H^H^H the snapshot is messed up and that I should try again with a newer snap.
