Hi I'm new to the FreeBSD O/S (version 4.3), I just recompiled my first custom Kernel today and well it didn't work out too well. I compiled but it fails on boot up. I get the following error message Mounting Root from ufs: /dev/ad4s1a Root mount failed: 6 Mounting root from ufs: wd0s1a swap: /dev/ad4s1b: Device not configured Automatic boot in progress can't open /dev/ad4s1a: Device not configured /dev/ad4s1a: Can't check file system thats most of the error message than is says press enter to use /bin/sh it boots me to the prompt. When I boot with kernal.old (the origional unmodified kernal it works fine) My system specs are as follows: Dual Intel Pentium III 733MHz 256MB PC133 Ram 20 GIG ATA100 HD MSI 694D Pro MotherBoard ATI 32MB Radeon Creative Labs Sound Blaster Value 40X IDE CD-ROM Microsoft Intelli Point USB Mouse Microsoft Natural PS/2 Keyboard My Custom Kernel ---------------------------------------------- # # GENERIC -- Generic kernel configuration file for FreeBSD/i386 # # For more information on this file, please read the handbook section on # Kernel Configuration Files: # # http://www.FreeBSD.org/handbook/kernelconfig-config.html # # The handbook is also available locally in /usr/share/doc/handbook # if you've installed the doc distribution, otherwise always see the # FreeBSD World Wide Web server (http://www.FreeBSD.org/) for the # latest information. # # An exhaustive list of options and more detailed explanations of the # device lines is also present in the ./LINT configuration file.
